In the Presence of Greatness: My Sixty-Year Journey as an Actress

In the Presence of Greatness: My Sixty-Year Journey as an Actress

Kim Stanley
5/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
'The Miracle Worker'. 'The Patty Duke Show'. 'Valley of the Dolls'. Those perennial film and television titles still reverberate with audiences entranced with Academy Award-winning film actress and Broadway and television icon Patty Duke.

Patty first gained national attention and praise playing Helen Keller in both the Broadway stage and film versions of 'The Miracle Worker'. As identical cousins on 'The Patty Duke Show', her name became an American household word. Her later work in 'Valley of the Dolls', 'Me', 'Natalie,' 'My Sweet Charlie', a later television remake of 'The Miracle Worker', and dozens of other productions established her as one of America's leading actresses.

Patty's previous autobiographical works, 'Call Me Anna' and 'A Brilliant Madness', achieved 'New York Times' best-seller status. Now, her indelible show business legacy echoes enduringly with untold stories of her six-decade career and the legends of her time, including Richard Burton, Laurence Olivier, Helen Hayes, Fred Astaire, Anne Bancroft, Judy Garland, President John F. Kennedy, Helen Keller, Margaret Cho, Garth Brooks, Gloria Vanderbilt, Lucille Ball, Darren Criss, Richard Crenna, Patricia Neal, Liza Minnelli, Helen Hunt, and many others. For the first time, Patty also talks openly of her friendship with actress Sharon Tate and her grisly murder at the hands of Charles Manson.
