I'm forgoing my monthly Original and Remake to make another post tied in with Women's History Month. I'm a big fan of autobiographies & biographies and thought I'd make a post on some autobiographies about some Old Hollywood female stars. So here's a few to check out!  My Story by Marilyn Monroe with Ben Hecht By Myself and Then Some by Lauren Bacall Unsinkable by Debbie Reynolds and Dorian Hannaway  'Tis Herself: An Autobiography by Maureen O'Hara with John Nicoletti Me: Stories of My Life by Katharine Hepburn Every Frenchman Has One by Olivia de Havilland Until Next Time, Ashley A. 

Since we're in March and March is Women's History Month I thought I'd continue making posts centered on women, or rather, some of my favorite women throughout history. I'm a huge music fan and many of the singers and bands I listen to are women centered, so why not post my favorite singers and a couple of their songs I really love.  Judy Garland I'm Always Chasing Rainbows / The Trolley Song / Get Happy Carole King It's Too Late / So Far Away / I Feel The Earth Move Stevie Nicks Gypsy / Rhiannon / Dreams Patsy Cline I Fall To Pieces / Walkin' After Midnight / Crazy Debbie Harry (of Blondie) Call Me / One Way or Another / Heart of Glass  Until Next Time, Ashley A.
