Book
Shy : the alarmingly outspoken memoirs of Mary Rodgers / Mary Rodgers and Jesse Green.
"The memoirs of Mary Rodgers--writer, composer, Broadway royalty, and "a woman who tried everything.""-- Provided by publisher.
The daughter of one composer and the mother of another, Mary Rodgers was herself a composer, whose musical Once Upon a Mattress remains one of the rare revivable Broadway hits written by a woman. Here she tells how she became not just a theater figure in her own right but also a renowned author of books for young readers (including the classic Freaky Friday) as well as a doyenne of philanthropy and the chairman of the Juilliard School. -- adapted from jacket.
