Product Description
Review
'A touching, affectionate and credible memoir that pulls no punches, yet restores Judy Garland to the human race' Sunday Times; 'Luft has that rarest of qualities... perspective... and it wasn't easy, to judge by this engrossing account' Mail on Sunday
Book Description
Adapted for a two-part mini-series, nominated for 13 Emmy Awards, this is the memoir of Lorna Luft - a remarkable woman and talented performer - her half-sister Liza Minnelli and baby brother Joe, as they desperately try to hang on to their legendary mother, Judy Garland. With wit and candid detail, this is an account of survival in a world of dizzying contradiction. By learning to embrace her past, Lorna Luft has managed to emerge out of the shadows.

A really good angle., April 28 2010

This review is from: Me and My Shadows (Hardcover)
Numberous books on Judy Garland but this is one from a close famliy member (Judy's daughter) which I think has some validity points. A Very good point,not mentioned in other bios was that the family had a private detective investigate wheather Judys father,Frank Gumm, was a homosexual. His report stated that people whom wnew him interveiwed dispelled this. Further those claims were never made till many years later when family members were dead and Judy was famous enough to be paperback writer fodder. I recommend this book for anyone that's read other books about Garland's life written by a 'third party'
