Life Is Not a Stage Brand New Book!
Auto-Biography by Florence Henderson
Her real life was NOTHING at all like her wonderful TV life as Carol Brady, wife & mother of 6 kids on the Brady Bunch!
For millions around the world, Carol Brady is synonymous with motherhood but growing up the youngest of 10 kids in rural Indiana in the aftermath of the Great Depression, Florence lived a life quite different from that of the contented TV mom she played on tv. Her father was a dirt-poor tobacco tenant farmer who was nearly 50 when he married Florence's 25-year-old mother and was nearly 70 when she was born. Her childhood was one filled with abuse and abandonment. Her father was an alcoholic and their home rarely had electricity or running water. When she was only 12 years old her mother left the family to work and never returned again.
Florence opens up about her childhood, as well as the challenges she has faced as an adult, including stage fright, post-partum depression, extramarital affairs and divorce and also her hearing loss and heart problems.
She writes with great honesty and wisdom of how her faith and ability to survive has brought her through rough times to a life of profound joy and purpose. She states that this memoir 'is written as a natural consequence of forgiveness and compassion, not only for those who have harmed me but most importantly, for myself.'
