JENIFER LEWIS

The "Mega Diva" and legendary star of Black-ish looks back on her memorable journey to fame and the unforgettable life lessons she learned along the way. 


Jenifer Lewis keeps it real in this provocative and touching memoir  by a Midwestern girl with a dream whose journey from poverty to  Hollywood will move, shock, and inspire listeners. 


Told in the audacious voice her fans adore, Jenifer describes a road  to fame made treacherous by dysfunction and undiagnosed mental illness,  including a sex addiction. Yet, supported by loving friends and  strengthened by "inner soldiers", Jenifer never stopped entertaining and  creating. 


We watch as Jenifer develops icon status stemming from a series of  legendary screen roles as the sassy yet lovable mama or auntie. And we  watch as her emotional disturbances, culminating in a breakdown while  filming The Temptations movie, launch her on a continuing search for answers, love, and healing. 

Written with no-holds-barred honesty, this gripping memoir is filled  with insights gained through a unique life that offers a universal  message: "Love yourself so that love will not be a stranger when it  comes." 


From her first taste of applause at five years old to landing on  Broadway within 11 days of graduation and ultimately achieving success  in movies, television, and global concert halls, Jenifer reveals her  outrageous life story with lots of humor, a few regrets, and, most  importantly, unbridled joy. Candid, warm, and wonderfully inspiring, The Mother of Black Hollywood intimately reveals the heart of a woman who lives life to the fullest.
