Beschreibung

<b>A candid, no-holds-barred memoir in which Hollywood icon Mamie Van Doren busts myths, settles old scores, and unveils untold stories from a life lived at the glittering and gritty edges of the Golden Age.</b><br><br><i>You Thought I Was Dead</i> is Mamie Van Doren as you’ve never seen her: unguarded, unapologetic, and gloriously unfiltered.<br> <br>From a South Dakota farm to Hollywood soundstages, Mamie’s life has been anything but ordinary. In this tell-all memoir, the platinum-blonde legend shatters the polished myths of Old Hollywood, sharing the wild, poignant, and often shocking truths behind the glamour. She takes you inside the studios, onto the sets, and behind closed doors with movie idols, music legends, and power brokers—from Clark Gable and Tony Curtis to Howard Hughes and Quincy Jones.<br> <br>With her trademark wit and candor, Mamie recounts friendships and feuds, headline-making romances, brushes with danger, and the fierce independence that kept her career and spirit alive long after the credits rolled. Alongside the dazzling stories are moments of raw honesty about the loneliness, loss, and resilience that shaped the woman behind the bombshell image.<br> <br>Illustrated with original cartoons by acclaimed artist Stephen B. Whatley, <i>You Thought I Was Dead</i> is part memoir, part Hollywood history, and wholly Mamie—bold, sexy, defiant, and unforgettable.<br> <br>Whether you’re a devotee of the Golden Age, a rock and roll nostalgist, or simply a lover of great, unvarnished storytelling, this is more than a memoir—it’s a front-row seat to a life lived without a script.
