Written with the cooperation of Luci Arnaz and Desi Arnaz, Jr., both of whom consented to rare interview, The Lucy Book is an amazing retrospective and the life and career of America's favorite redhead. Containing hundreds of original interviews with cast members, guest stars, production people, contemporaries, family, and friends, this book will tell you what it was really like to work with Lucy. Year by year, episode by episode, television appearance by television appearance, you follow the meteoric career of this comedy legend. Her five TV series are thoroughly covered, as are her myriad guest appearances on other situation comedies, dramas, game shows, talk shows, variety shows, commercials, and specials. All told, more than 1,000 television appearances and her seventy-five films are extensively chronicled in this book.

Geoffrey Mark Fidelman has spent his entire life in one part of show business or another. His books are the best selling The Lucy Book and Ethel Merman: The Biggest Star on Broadway, as well as The Family Affair Cookbook and Ella: A Biography of Legendary Ella Fitzgerald. He lives in Palm Springs, California.

Nan McNamara is an AudioFile Earphones Award-winning narrator and garnered the "Best Audiobook of 2016" distinction for her narration of Mister Monkey by Francine Prose. Her twenty-plus years as a professional actress on stage, television, and film translate into audiobook storytelling that AudioFile magazine calls "richly observed," "heartbreaking," and empowers her to "smoothly shift to whatever character, time, or emotion she is portraying." Nan has narrated nearly 100 titles in numerous genres. She is also the recipient of the Los Angeles Drama Critics Award, LA Weekly Award, StageRaw Award, Robby Award, and Scenie Award for her numerous stage performances (including Wit, for which she shaved her head) and has recorded hundreds of voice-overs for radio/TV, video games, and promos. Nan's film/television work includes portraying powerhouse attorney Bonnie Pearl on Major Crimes, a recurring stint on Switched at Birth as Brenda Powers, having fun with Emmy winner Tony Hale in Not That Funny, being killed by Jamie Kennedy in the opening of Foreclosed with Marlee Matlin and Paul Sorvino, and being reunited with her two kidnapped children on Criminal Minds. Originally from St. Paul, Minnesota, Nan received her bachelor's degree in theater (cum laude). Ever the optimist, one of her lifelong dreams is for the Minnesota Vikings to reach the Super Bowl.
