It's conventional wisdom that Hollywood has no use for a woman over forty. So it's a good thing that Diahann Carrollwhose winning, sometimes controversial career breached racial barriersis anything but conventional.Here she shares her life story with an admirable candidness of someone who has seen and done it all. With wisdom that only aging gracefully can bestow, she talks frankly about her four marriages as well as the other significant relationships in her life, including her courtship with Sidney Poitier; racial politics in Hollywood and on Broadway; and the personal cost, particularly to her family, of being a pioneer. Carroll's storied history, blunt views, and notorious wit will be sure to entertain and inform.
