About This Item
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1991. First edition of Katharine Hepburn's revealing autobiography. Octavo, original cloth, illustrated with 165 photographs. Signed by Katharine Hepburn on the front free endpaper. Additionally signed three times by legendary jacket designer Chip Kidd; on the front panel, on the front free endpaper and on the rear jacket flap. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Carol Devine Carson and Chip Kidd. Throwing aside her performing personality, Hepburn here reveals the person behind the persona in a vivid, unforgettable self-portrait that takes readers back to her childhood, to her early days in New York and Hollywood, through the ups and downs of her career, into the sanctuaries of her private life, and into her close collaboration with many of the leading actors, directors, and producers of the past several decades.
