Lovers of old-time radio hold a special place in their heart for Agnes Moorehead. She was one of the busiest and most definitive actresses of that medium. The bottom line is that Agnes Moorehead is one of the few actresses who succeeded in every realm of show business: stage, radio, film, and television. The respect of her peers can be summed up in these statistics: four Academy Award nominations; seven Emmy nominations - with one win; two Golden Globe nominations - with two wins; and the Best Actress award from the New York Film Critics. This impressive biography proves to listeners and scholars alike that she was much more than the witch of Endor!
This is the second edition of the best-selling book, with new material!

There are several outtakes and bits of direction from the producers left in that we shouldn’t be hearing at all.
Whoever edited this was in a hurry and didn’t take the time to go through the entire book and edit it correctly.
Audible needs to send this back to the publisher and ask for a re edit. Maybe even a full re-record.
At least get a strong narrator who knows how to pronounce simple words (this actress doesn’t), and an editor that is diligent and doesn’t rush through job.
The excellent writing from the author is all that has prevented me from returning this book and exchanging it with something better.
Great book, terrible narrator and worse editing

The narrator is awful too - really slow (producer's fault), but when she reads a farmer talking about a play she reads it with a hillbilly accent. Seriously? I would hate to hear her read Steinbeck.
Terrific book but . . .
