Synopsis: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “This book is like nothing you’ve read before about the world of movies—written by a movie star.”—Liz Smith

An Academy Award-winning actress and the internationally bestselling author of Out on a Limb delivers her touching, warm, and headline-making memoir. In My Lucky Stars Shirley MacLaine talks candidly and personally about her four decades in Hollywood, especially about the men and women—her “lucky stars”—who touched and challenged her life.

“[Maclaine is] an engaging storyteller. . . . Breezy and entertaining.”—The New York Times Book Review
