Book summary

In this candid memoir, four-time Academy Award-winner Katharine Hepburn reminisces about her idyllic childhood, her early days of stardom, and her passionate affair with Spencer Tracy. She shares the excitement of collaborating with Cary Grant and John Barrymore, and reveals the humiliation of being fired from her first acting job. More than 100 photographs from Hepburn's personal archives have been included.

First Line


Before I tell you anything about myself, I would like to tell you, at least identify for you, the world into which I was born.



Publisher Notes


With characteristic gusto and candor, Katharine Hepburn reflects on the events, people, and places that helped shape her life--her childhood and family, her early days in New York and her experiences with political activism.



With the publication of The Making of the African Queen in 1987, Katharine Hepburn proved that she can number writing among her many talents, and that her humor and intelligence, and the inimitable cadences of her voice translate vividly to the printed page. Now, with characteristic gusto and candor, she delivers her eagerly awaited memoir. 75 photographs.



Excerpt


I loved Spencer Tracy. He and his interests and his demands came first.
This was not easy for me. I was definitely a me me me person.
It was a unique feeling that I had for S.T. I would have done anything for him. My feelings--how can I describe them?--the door between us was always open. There were no reservations of any kind.
