Carol
My Life Story (in 9 CDs)
"With deep pride most of life has been associated with Musical Theatre
and now through this electronic marvel I am able to vocalize the important
stories of my career. The cultures of the world contributed to the United
States the composers, lyricists, artists into Musical Theatre. This
marvelous melting pot has created this new unique form of entertainment
exclusively American and shared with the rest of the world. Many of those
artists who have been a part of my life help me bring to life the stories,
the romance, the lyrics of that golden era"
Carol Channing
Best known for her portrayal of the irresistible Dolly Levi, the title
character of the Broadway musical phenomenon, Hello, Dolly!, Carol Channing
is perhaps the only living theatrical star whose name brings a smile to the
face of people in virtually every city and town across the world.
Conversational in style, and written entirely by Miss Channing, this
star-studded chronicle gives you the feeling that you are sitting down with
this fascinating woman and having her delight you with tales from her long
and amazing life, both personal and professional. You'll be invited behind
the scenes for stories featuring an all star cast of celebrities such as
Marilyn Monroe, Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Mary Martin, Tallulah
Bankhead, Gower Champion, Clint Eastwood, Julie Andrews, Marlene Dietrich,
David Merrick, Noel Coward, Al Pacino, and Yul Brynner. And you'll learn of
the not-so-glamorous times, too, as Miss Channing reveals her theatrical
triumphs, her heritage, and her winning battle with ovarian cancer. Through
it all, Carol Channing - the real star of this story - demonstrates with wit
and candor how she kept up her spirits and forged fearlessly ahead.
