The first memoir · 2003
Someone Please Love Me
A True Story of a Dancer from the Movie Porky's. The earlier, tighter telling of the performing years.
Where it started
The first time she said any of it out loud
Published in 2003, this is the book that broke the silence. It covers the performing years — the dancing that began around the age of thirty, the touring, the film work including Porky's, and the marriages that ran alongside all of it.
It is a shorter, harder book than the one that followed. Where Secrets Are Out Now takes eighty-three years and lays them end to end, this one stays with the stage, and with the question its title asks outright.
