Review

"Loretta Young defied the years better than any actress I can think of." -- Charles Champlin, Los Angeles Times, Aug. 16, 2000

From the Publisher

The life story and faith journey of one of the last of the legends of Hollywood, Forever Young is an unforgettable, moving, funny, poignant account of a film and television star many admired for her grace, poise and beauty. Loretta Young's faith and determination come to life in this carefully researched biography of her life. For 30 years, Miss Young had refused overtures from biographers. In 1998, she met New York Times bestselling author Joan Wester Anderson and commented to her daughter-in-law Linda Lewis, "That's the woman I want to write the story of my life." When Linda queried Miss Young about the choice, her comment was, "Who better than a writer of angels and miracles to tell the story of my life?"

Joan Wester Anderson began writing in 1973, as a way to bring home a second income for her family of seven. "It was to be a temporary situation while I figured out what talents I had," Joan says. However, she never got around to deciding; instead she slipped into magazine feature writing, and did an occasional book,too. "The books never sold very well--my mother sometimes bought a copy---but they gave the illusion that I was somewhat of a professional, which was important for my self-image."

In 1992, Joan realized that her children had all finished college and moved away. Perhaps it was time for her to do the same. One of her sons had experienced an amazing miracle, so she decided to write one last book in thanksgiving to God, and then return to college to prepare for her next career. Instead, her "thanksgiving book" became a New York Times best-seller, WHERE ANGELS WALK.

Joan is widely regarded as one of the writers who began the "angel craze," and spoke around the country as experts and talk show guests. Today she is the author of nine books on angels and miracles, and continues to send out stories to her mailing lists of "angel lovers." Amazing but true---WHERE ANGELS WALK is approaching its twenty-fifth year in print (does it seem that long?) and a commemorative edition will soon be available. This book will include the entire text of WHERE ANGELS WALK (for those of you who missed it the first time around) as well as some new material. Happy reading!

Wonderful book. It gave her a very human perspective. I highly recommend this book. She was a very dedicated Catholic.

I should have read the comments before I downloaded this bit of
sickly sweet tripe. Had I done so, it would have saved me time and money. Naively, I expected to read a more prosaic biography, a book filled with both grit and silk and tons of detail. What I found myself reading was a Roman Catholic screed, one little essay after another, all presenting Ms. Young as above reproach and indeed,
a candidate for sainthood. She kept company with some very questionable people. There are no photos!

an interesting read, but whitewashed. the alleged facts of her life, but cleansed for personal afterlife memories. we must remember that actors are just that. performers acting a role that has nothing to do with they're own lives. they are entertainers. excellent if you can believe that actor is the person is the character they are portraying. they're own lives should not be confused with their job.

Loretta Young decided at Age 8 that she would be a movie star.

Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2016

Verified Purchase

Loretta Young was an admirable actress whose popularity spanned 7 decades. Authorized biographies are seldom written to show the less attractive traits in a person, especially celebrities. I have no doubt that she was a hard-working actress, a religious person, strongly committed to her faith. But she frequently demonstrated that her career and the gratification she enjoyed from being a movie star was paramount in her life. The author contends that she made virtually all of the sacrifices to make her marriage sustainable, but that is inconsistent with her ambition. She enjoyed the trappings of stardom, was quite vain about her appearance, resented her husband selling her V-16 Cadillac, Madame X, Town Car. She galavanted about the oountry while others cared for her children. I concluded that there were only two elements that were important in her life; her career and her faith. Despite her generosity, paramount in her mind, was her reputation. The fact that she could live through lengthy periods without contact with her children, especially her first child, betrays her sense of priorities. And, it is difficult for me to believe that she and Spencer Tracy had a totally chaste relationship. He was a known womanizer and she was more strongly attracted to him than she was Clark Gable. I was and am a strong fan of her screen performances. She had a special quality. But as an angel, I believe that her wings were more soiled than the author would have us believe.

can we believe everything in this book?

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2014

Verified Purchase

After reading this book I was conflicted. She tried hard to be a good Christian and Catholic. However her anger at her daughter for her daughters book was not the act of a good person. She was more concerned with scandal and her image than her daughters need to write what she did. Why didn't she do as she claimed she had done so many other times and put the matter into God's hand? I want to believe every word of this book and I do know that all of the good works she did In her lifetime are true. I find it difficult to do so but will try because I am in such a horrid place in my own life I want to use her example to stop wallowing in selfish self pity. I spent the best years of my life helping other people. Recently I realized they were my best years because I was, helping others. I was happiest when I could do this. Now thanks to Loretta's inspiration in this book I will put my life into God's hands and get out there to do it again. Great well written book and whether everything unit is true is irrelevant to me.

Insight Into A Legend

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is a reasonably well-written book about Loretta Young's fascinating life, career, family, and personal struggles. Heavily laden with references to Mrs. Young's Catholic faith and a bit repetitious, it provides, nonetheless, a compelling picture of a single-minded woman and talented actress who was determined to be true to herself and her personal convictions, even to the point of denying herself plum acting roles and her biological daughter's maternity and paternity. For those who have enjoyed Mrs. Young on the big or small screen and wondered what was going on behind those blue eyes, diaphanous gowns, and quiet demeanor, you are in for a few surprises. Authorized by the actress herself, this is a must read for Loretta Young fans.
