Book excerpt: Through Jackie Epstein's work as a Hollywood columnist, tennis columnist, speaker, and publicist for film and television, and her husband's career as an Entertainment editor for the Herald-Examiner, , doors to the celebrity world opened up, and they were able to enjoy the luxuries of the rich, while raising a family on a paycheck-to-paycheck income. Almost 90 years have passed since Jackie was born in Hollywood, and she takes the reader on a fun-filled romp of a life well-lived, sharing, wisdom, humor, and anecdotes of her professional and personal encounters with both Hollywood and tennis stars, her love of family, and her love of life. Her lens as a publicist and columnist give fresh insights into the many celebrities she came to know, and at the same time, reveals a realistic experience of what it is to work behind the scenes in a glamorous industry.
