Welcome to Litsy!

What a cool book! It‘s equal parts biography/memoir, scrapbook and art journal and tells the story of Doris Eaton, who started in show business very young with her siblings and went on to live a long and fascinating life! At the time this was written she was 102 and she passed away in 2010 at the age of 106. Highly recommended to anyone interested in history, the theater and Old Hollywood. 5⭐️
