The Mother of Black Hollywood: A Memoir Paperback - 2018
by Jenifer Lewis
From the rear cover
In the audaciously honest voice that her fans adore, the "Mega Diva" bares her soul in this poignant--and at times hilarious--memoir.
Performing hundreds of film and television roles as the "Mama" to characters portrayed by stars like Whitney Houston, Tupac Shakur, and Taraji P. Henson cemented Jenifer Lewis's status as "the Mother of Black Hollywood."
When she experiences an emotional breakdown while filming The Temptations, her quest for wholeness becomes a harrowing yet inspiring tale that includes revelations of bipolar disorder.
This gripping memoir is filled with insights gained through a unique life that offers a universal message: "Love yourself so that love will not be a stranger when it comes."
