[Greta · Rating 3 out of 5]

Modest but pleasing autobiography, though it somewhat disconcertingly cuts off when her third husband dumps her. She has very bad luck with husbands but somehow seems to remain upbeat. Her childhood is interesting and she tells some charming stories of her working life in Hollywood. Love her story about the world's worst time to be asked for an autograph!
