"WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY PEGGY?"

The Autobiography of Hollywood's Pioneer Child Star
By Diana Serra Cary
Long before Shirley Temple's curls bounced their way into America's heart, Baby Peggy lit up marquees here and around the world. Discovered in 1920 at 19 months of age, she was put under contract with her first film at $75 a week. Working constantly she was starred in dozens of Baby Peggy comedies and five feature films: she had earned more than $2 million by the time she was five. This story of the shared infancy of a child and an industry reveals the incredible life, responsibilities and burdens of a world famous child super-star.

This is the reprint of her hardback, now containing additional goodies! Just $24.95 + $5 US postage.

Praise for Diana Serra Cary

"Cary's honest and well-told account of her unusually rich life, as well as of Hollywood during its formative years, should interest even those who have never heard of Baby Peggy." - Publishers Weekly

"Two thumbs up for this engrossing, sometimes shocking memoir of life as a child actor during the silent-movie era... Hollywood memoirs just don't get any better than this!" - Kirkus Reviews
