X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>From her more than three hundred appearanc
 es for film and television\, stage and cabaret\, performing comedy or dram
 a\, as an unforgettable lead or a scene stealing supporting character\, Je
 nifer Lewis has established herself as one of the most respected\, admired
 \, talented\, and versatile entertainers working today.</p>\n<p>This &ldqu
 o\;Mega Diva&rdquo\; and costar of the hit sitcom black-ish bares her soul
  in this touching and poignant&mdash\;and at times side-splittingly hilari
 ous&mdash\;memoir of a Midwestern girl with a dream\, whose journey took h
 er from poverty to the big screen\, and along the way earned her many acco
 lades.</p>\n<p>With candor and warmth\, Jenifer Lewis reveals the heart of
  a woman who lives life to the fullest. This multitalented &ldquo\;force o
 f nature&rdquo\; landed her first Broadway role within eleven days of her 
 graduation from college and later earned the title &ldquo\;Reigning Queen 
 of High-Camp Cabaret.&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>In the audaciously honest voice that
  her fans adore\, Jenifer describes her transition to Hollywood\, with gue
 st roles on hits like&nbsp\;The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;Fr
 iends. Her movie&nbsp\;Jackie&rsquo\;s Back!&nbsp\;became a cult favorite\
 , and as the &ldquo\;Mama&rdquo\; to characters portrayed by Whitney Houst
 on\, Tupac Shakur\, Taraji P. Henson\, and many more\, Jenifer cemented he
 r status as the &ldquo\;Mother of Black Hollywood.&rdquo\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&n
 bsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>When an undiagnose
 d mental&nbsp\;illness stymies Jenifer&rsquo\;s career\, culminating in a 
 breakdown while filming&nbsp\;The Temptations\, her quest for wholeness be
 comes a harrowing and inspiring tale\, including revelations of bipolar di
 sorder and sex addiction.</p>\n<p>Written with no-holds-barred honesty and
  illustrated with more than forty color photographs\, this gripping memoir
  is filled with insights gained through a unique life that offers a univer
 sal message: &ldquo\;Love yourself so that love will not be a stranger whe
 n it comes.&rdquo\;</p>\nhttps://hplct.libnet.info/event/16463255
