Laughing Till It Hurts: The Complete Life and Career of Carol Burnett($71.44Value)

Description

Beginning where Burnett's autobiography left off, this volume delves into the eleven year history of "The Carol Burnett Show" and discusses Burnett's two marriages, her film roles, and her friendships and associations with other show biz celebrities This book really begins at the start of Burnett's career, leaving out her early life, which Burnett covered in her best-selling autobiography One More Time ( LJ 10/15/86). However, the author does an excellent job of tracing her career, using interviews with many of those involved in it. Most interesting is that part showing how the cast and characters on the Carol Burnett Show came to be. Her personal life, including her divorce, libel suit, and daughter's drug problems, are also covered. Written with affection and humor, this is recommended. Sally G.
