Summary

The two-time Emmy Award winner presents a harrowing, hysterical, and beautifully written memoir as frank and revealing as Augusten Burroughswith the humor and wit of David Sedaris.A celebrated and award-winning actress who is perhaps best known for the long-running TV show 3rd Rock from the Sun, for which she won two Emmys, Kristen Johnston has entertained audiences with her impeccable delivery and natural charm. Kristen has also appeared on stage in more than fifty plays, and on screen in Sex and the City, Austin Powers, ER, Ugly Betty, Strangers with Cand y, Music and Lyrics, Bride Wars, and will appear in the upcoming Amy Heckerling film Vamps as well as The Ex-Men, a pilot for TV Land.
