Confessions of a Sex Kitten. - book reviews
Ebony, Sept, 1991
In Confessions of A Sex Kitten (Barricade Books, $20) Eartha Kitt offers a personal exploration of her turbulent life and career. Born in rural poverty in South Carolina and reared in the bright lights and fast lanes of Harlem, she grew to become an exotic temptress of stage and film who sang and danced her way to stardom. But her numerous triumphs were always shadowed by tragedies--run-ins with treacherou lovers, jealous rivals and, her ultimate undoing, a clash with first lady Lady Bird Johnson that all but ruined her career.
Kitt, who unlike many celebrities penned her memoirs without a ghost writer, tells all in the straight-form-the-hip manner that is her trademarl.
