What Amazon Says:
Kelly Birshop's long, storied career has been defined by landmark achievements, from winning a Tony Award for her turn in the original Broadway cast of A Chorus Line to her memorable performance as Jennifer Grey's mother in Dirty Dancing. But it is probably her iconic role as matriarch Emily in the modern classic Gilmore Girls that cemented her legacy. Now, Birshop reflects on her remarkable life and looks towards the future with The Third Gilmore Girl. She shares some of her greatest stories and the life lessons she's learned on her journey. From her early transition from dance to drama, to marrying young to a compulsive gambler, to the losses and achievements she experienced - among them marching for women's rights and losing her second husband to cancer - Bishop offers a rich, genuine celebration of her life.
This was a great book. I have watched and enjoyed all the shows that Bishop has been a part of, and think she is a fantastic actress. I enjoyed learning more about her career and what she is up to now. She was humble and caring about those who she worked with. She shared her own tragic loss of her husband and how she has moved on without him. Overall a strong, quick read.
Stars: 4.5
