[Natalie · Rating 5 out of 5]

The first of Eva Le Gallienne's two autobiographies. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about all of her theatrical adventures, and I also am equal parts admiring and amused that she completely refused to write about her personal life and barely mentioned her very high-profile accident (she almost died in a natural gas explosion a year or two before the book came out).
