"Includes original music composed especially for the program by Carly Simon and Teese Gold, plus a previously unreleased bonus song from Carly Simon." |
Summary |
The successful singer-songwriter describes her life growing up amidst the glamour of literary New York, her path to art and music, her marriage to James Taylor, and her famously cryptic song lyrics. |
|
Simon's memoir reveals her remarkable life, beginning with her storied childhood as the third daughter of Richard L. Simon, the co-founder of publishing giant Simon & Schuster, her musical debut as half of The Simon Sisters performing folk songs with her sister Lucy in Greenwich Village, to a meteoric solo career that would result in thirteen top 40 hits, including the number one song 'You're So Vain.' She was the first artist in history to win a Grammy Award, an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award, for her song 'Let the River Run' from the movie Working Girl. The memoir recalls a childhood enriched by music and culture, but also one shrouded in secrets that would eventually tear her family apart. |
