Synopsis

Arlene Peck's living room walls are filled with hundreds of pictures of famous people she has known over a period of almost 40 years, during which she interviewed hundreds of celebrities on her television talk show in Los Angeles and engaged with others as a journalist, an active participant in the "in crowd" scenes, a supporter of Jewish causes, and a frequent traveler to the Middle East and other locales. In Before Botox, Arlene shares her experiences with dozens of these celebrities, including TV and movie stars, singers, writers, politicians, and activists. Funny, heartwarming, and informative, this book tells the story of an intriguing woman who has seen a lot and who "knew them when," providing a unique insight into the lives of the rich and famous, and even the infamous, as they parry her questions, laugh at her humor, and share with her their personal stories. A must read for any celebrity enthusiast and for those who want to see how famous people engage with an entertaining woman who is proud to be politically incorrect. Arlene Peck knows where all the bodies are buried. Unfortunately she's responsible for most of them. But she's a damn good writer. Ed Asner, actor

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Arlene Peck wrote an internationally syndicated column for decades and hosted her own television talk show for over 20 years. When she traveled to Russia in 1976 and was briefly detained by the KGB for smuggling Jewish prayer books into the synagogues there, Arlene kept a diary of her experiences, and the publication of her tales began her career as a journalist. She wrote about a wide variety of topics, including politics, relationships, marriage and divorce, Jewish issues, and travel locales. As host of the talk show Wow! It's Arlene Peck, Arlene interviewed hundreds of celebrities from the entertainment industry and other public arenas, providing a fascinating insight into their personal lives, backgrounds, careers, and opinions. In her first book, Prison Cheerleader: How a Nice Jewish Girl Went Wrong Doing Right, Arlene relates her experiences leading a Jewish discussion group at the maximum-security Atlanta Federal Penitentiary in the 1970s. She served as a commentator on ShalomTV and on radio stations in Los Angeles and Atlanta. A profile in Lifestyles magazine described Arlene as "Politically Incorrect and Loving It." Arlene lives in Atlanta, GA and Marina del Rey, CA.
