Can't help singing

About this book

"One of the greatest and most celebrated American singers of the twentieth century, Eileen Farrell is blessed with two voices. A classically trained dramatic soprano who also loves to belt pop songs and torch the blues, she successfully conquered the worlds of opera and popular music over the course of her whirlwind career." "Now, in this memoir, Farrell shares reminiscences about her remarkable professional and personal life.". "Populated with such figures as Leonard Bernstein, Arturo Toscanini, Maria Callas, Ethel Merman, Mabel Mercer, and Carol Burnett, this memoir takes the reader from backstage at the Met to behind-the-scenes of the Ed Sullivan Show, providing a fascinating view of opera and the entertainment industry."--BOOK JACKET.
