Known for her outstanding performances on the groundbreaking television series The Good Wife and ER, Julianna Margulies deftly chronicles her life and her work in this deeply powerful memoir.
“At
once a tender coming-of-age story and a deeply personal look at a young
woman making sense of the world against a chaotic and peripatetic
childhood.”—Katie Couric
As an apple-cheeked bubbly child,
Julianna was bestowed with the family nickname “Sunshine Girl.” Shuttled
back and forth between her divorced parents, often on
different continents, she quickly learned how to be of value to her
eccentric mother and her absent father. Raised in fairly unconventional
ways in various homes in Paris, England, New York, and New
Hampshire, Julianna found that her role among the surrounding turmoil
and uncertainty was to comfort those around her, seeking organization
among the disorder, making her way in the world as a young adult and
eventually an award-winning actress.
Throughout, there were
complicated relationships, difficult choices, and overwhelming
rejections. But there were also the moments where fate, faith, and
talent aligned, leading to the unforgettable roles of a lifetime, both
professionally and personally—moments when chaos had finally turned to
calm.
Filled with intimate stories and revelatory moments, Sunshine Girl is
at once unflinchingly honest and perceptive. It is a riveting
self-portrait of a woman whose resilience in the face of turmoil will
leave readers intrigued and inspired.
