SynopsisFrom golden-voiced ing nue to bus-driving mother of a pop band, Shirley Jones sets aside her wholesome, squeaky clean image in a memoir as shockingly candid, deliciously juicy, and delightfully frank as the star herself. "You are going to meet the real flesh-and-blood Shirley Jones, not just the movie star or Mrs. Partridge," says the beloved film, television, and stage actress and singer of her long-awaited memoir, an account as shockingly direct, deliciously juicy, and delightfully frank as the performer herself. Sharing the "candid" ( Los Angeles Times ) and "revealing" (Associated Press) details of her life in Hollywood's inner circle and beyond, Shirley Jones blows past the wholesome, squeaky-clean image that first brought fame, and gives us a woman who only gets hotter with time. If the story of a rebellious, gifted small-town girl being discovered by Rodgers and Hammerstein isn't thrilling enough, go deeper behind the scenes, where Shirley Jones portrays her tumultuous marriage to Jack Cassidy, the dashing and charismatic but deeply troubled actor who unlocked her highly charged sexuality and captured her heart forever. She talks openly about their passion-fueled relationship; the infidelities, the costar crushes, and sexual experimentation. She reflects on her relationship with stepson David Cassidy; her cult status as coolest-ever TV mom Shirley Partridge; her second marriage to wacky TV comedian and producer Marty Ingels; and much more in this "saucy" ( Entertainment Weekly ) self-portrait., A candid and provocative memoir by the Oscar-winning actress and beloved Partridge Familyicon, Shirley Jones., From golden-voiced ingénue to bus-driving mother of a pop band, Shirley Jones sets aside her wholesome, squeaky clean image in a memoir as shockingly candid, deliciously juicy, and delightfully frank as the star herself.

  • The Life and Career of Shirley Jones

    The book is in good and new condition in a convenient large paperback format. It is the autobiography of an actress who I have admired since I was 13. The pictures are fun and I discovered things about the movies of Shirley Jones that I didn't know before.
