She and her insatiable curiosity about life bring the reader into her relationships with Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, David Niven, Henry Fonda, Clark Gable, Lucille Ball, Sammy Davis Jr. - and finally, through therapy, the one she found with herself.Blessed with an acutely intact memory, Paige takes her readers on an unforgettable journey throughout the world.

She moved past her rereavement to protect his legacy, and has now crafted a showbiz memoir like no other.
