Love, Lucy

The Story

A recently discovered treasure, Love, Lucy is the valentine Lucille Ball left for her fans--a warm, wise, and witty memoir written by Lucy herself over thirty years ago. The legendary star was at the pinnacle of her success when she sat down to record the story of her life. No comedienne had made America laugh so hard, no television actress had made the leap from radio and movies to become one of the world's best-loved performers.This is her story--in her own words. The story of the ingenue from Jamestown, New York, determined to go to Broadway, destined to make a big splash, bound to marry her Valentino, Desi Arnaz. In her own inimitable style, she tells of their life together--both storybook and turbulent: intimate memories of their children and friends; wonderful backstage anecdotes; the creation of the most popular show on TV; the production empire they founded; the disolution of their marriage. And, with a heartfelt happy ending, her enduring marriage to Gary Morton. Here is the lost manuscript that her fans and loved ones have been waiting for. Here is the laughter. Here is the life. Here's Lucy...
