About this listen

Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye: The Barbara Payton Story is the only family-authorized biography of the late Hollywood actress whose promising film career in the 1950s was quickly overtaken by a disastrous and scandal-ridden personal life that left her career in ashes. Barbara Payton’s story has long been considered one of the saddest and most potent cautionary tales the town has ever known.

The writing and research is thorough and the story extremely well constructed. The narrative of a Hollywood starlet and her subsequent slide into alcoholism and mental illness is a traumatic and devastating ride. I gasped out loud in certain sections. However I almost didn’t make it past the first 15 minutes due to the narration. I’ve heard the same performer narrate a few books now…always identical. Upbeat, chipper…even when delivering the darkest of information. It’s beyond irritating. However in a desperate moment with nothing else to listen to after abandoning it weeks before, I became intrigued with the story and then got hooked. If you can get past the narration, this is a brilliant, sad and strangely very touching biography of a life gone wrong.
