Title: Here We Go Again: My Life In Television
Author(s): Betty White
Publisher: Simon & Schuster
Copyright Date: 1995
Copyrighted By: Betty White
Brief Synopsis: Autobiography of Betty White, noted actress, television
star and animal lover, who has been involved in television since it began.
Long Synopsis: "Here is Betty White-a woman who has been on television
forever!" is generally how Betty White is introduced. And quite accurately, too,
since she first appeared in 1949, when both she and television were rank
beginners. Since then, Betty White has had one of the most amazing careers in
TV, including Life with Elizabeth in 1952 (which brought her her first Emmy),
The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and, in 1985, The Golden Girls, for which she
won her fifth Emmy. In addition to many successful sitcoms, she also made
innumerable visits, both as guest and host, to the popular shows of several
eras-first
game shows, then variety shows, then talk shows. She sang and danced with
Carol Burnett and Sonny and Cher; guessed answers with Jack Paar and Allen
Ludden
(whom she later married); and chatted with Johnny Carson, Merv Griffin, David
Letterman, and many others. Here We Go Again gives an overview of television's
golden era and is packed full of wonderful anecdotes about the many famous
personalities with whom Betty has worked. It also gives a fascinating
behind-the-scenes
look at television over five decades, from Betty's first show Hollywood on
Television, which ran live five and a half hours a day, six days a week (thirty-
three hours per week!), to her current television work. In addition, the book
talks about Betty's personal life-how her hectic career caused strain in
her relationships and how she finally found happiness with her third husband,
the late talk show host Allen Ludden. Here We Go Again is just as warm and
funny as its author and will thrill her many fans and delight all of those
who are interested in the history of America's most popular form of
entertainment.
BETTY WHITE began her career in television after a brief start in radio. She
produced and starred in her own syndicated television series. Life with
Elizabeth,
and subsequently starred in The Betty White Show in 1954 and Date with the
Angels from 1958 to 1959. Following her portrayal of Sue Ann Nivens, the
man-hungry
television hostess on The Mary Tyler Moore Show from 1973 to 1977, she
appeared in the situation comedy The Betty White Show from 1977 to 1978 and
played
Ellen on Mama's Family in 1983. Most recently she has starred in The Golden
Girls, for which she won her fifth Emmy award, and Golden Palace. She also
narrated the Tournament of Roses Parade on network television for twenty
years, and for ten years covered the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. A committed
animal lover, she has been honored by numerous organizations for her
dedication to animal health and welfare; she has worked with the Morris Animal
Foundation
for twenty-five years. She is the author of three previous books: Leading
Lady (with Tom Sullivan), Betty White: In Person, and Pet Love. She lives in
Los Angeles.
