For millions of people around the world, Carol Brady is synonymous with motherhood, but growing up as the youngest of ten children in rural Indiana in the aftermath of the Great Depression, Florence Henderson lived a life quite different from that of the quintessential TV mom she later played on television. Florence's father was a dirt-poor tobacco tenant farmer who was nearly fifty years old when he married Florence's twenty-five-year-old mother, and was nearly seventy when Florence was born. Florence's childhood was full of deprivation and abandonment. Her father was an alcoholic at a time when there was no rehab or help for the disease. Their home rarely had electricity or running water. When she was twelve, Florence's mother left the family to work in Cleveland and never returned.Florence opens up about her childhood, as well as the challenges she's faced as an adult, including stage fright, postpartum depression, her extramarital affairs, divorce, her hearing loss, and heart problems. She writes with honesty and wisdom of how her faith and ability to survive has brought her through rough times to a life of profound joy and purpose.

I enjoyed this book. Seems like I am one of the "oldsters" now writing reviews. I knew of Florence Henderson from seeing her on game shows in the '60s. I also saw her nightclub act in the '60s: she has a beautiful voice. And I have seen a few of the Brady Bunch shows, but because I was a bit older than the kids on that show, I was not in the age group that the show was designed for. I bought this book because I'm a reader of biographies and memoirs. I'm curious about people, and what they've been through in their lives. She certainly went through a LOT more than I would have guessed from her cheery persona.I was surprised at the kind of home life and parents she had. She told the truth in a very gentle or muted way. She just seemed to accept what she couldn't change when she was young. She really had a bad "deal" with her parents. I guess that I wish she had been able to slow down a bit in her life, when she could have. She loves performing, and audiences no doubt love her singing, yet I couldn't help but feel that I wished she would stop"running" in her career, and try to just "be" for awhile, as a person. This is a book that female readers of biography/autobiography should find interest in, as I did.
