About this listen

Kathy Garver, the teenage heartthrob from the hit series Family Affair (1966 - 1971), was no one-hit wonder, but a talented actress who appeared in such classic films as Night of the Hunter and The Ten Commandments long before she became a television icon.

This memoir is a recollection of an exciting actress's experiences, from the many films, television shows, and stage plays in which she performed, to her second career as a voice-over specialist in popular animated films and audiobooks. Featuring anecdotes, Hollywood history, and details of her relationships with such stars as Charlton Heston and Jon Provost, Surviving Cissy is a veritable quilt of Kathy's intriguing life.

Loved Family Affair so of course I couldn't wait to read this book or listen to it as the case maybe. Love Kathy Garver and her voice didn't realize that she had a full life.

Great story

I loved the story but sometimes Kathy's telling of it was a bit slow and over detailed.

The history of a show I watched as I child was really interesting.
