Here-- in her own words, her own voice--is the life (so far) of Lauren Bacall, the nice, bright New York Jewish girl who at sixteen was working as an usher in Broadway Theatres while scrambling around for the Big Break; who was "discovered" first as a model by Diana Vreeland, then as a potential movie star by Howard and Slim Hawks: and who--at age nineteen--found herself in Hollywood with a new name, a staring role, and sudden huge fame as a funny (she was)and tough (she wasn't) sexpot. And who found Bogart, and became his "Baby," in one of the greatest of all Hollywood romances.
