Excerpt from With Every Good Wish:
“You ask if I have any advice for you about your becoming an apprentice with a stock company this summer. I can only repeat that which Sir John Gielgud gave to the graduating class of the American Academy of Dramatic Art. ‘Keep your mouths shut and your eyes and ears open. If you ask a question, listen to and act upon the answer.’ Better advice I can’t think of”
—December 17, 1966.


 

Agnes Moorehead as Endora in Bewitched

Agnes Moorehead, the one-of-a-kind star of stage, screen, TV and radio wrote to me from the time I was 13 until I graduated from college. Recently, with her biographer’s encouragement, I compiled about fifty letters into a book with commentary in order to set the correspondence in context. I hope that sharing these splendid gems with others will enhance Miss Moorehead’s legend as not only the most versatile actress of the twentieth century, but as also an inspiring mentor and teacher.

Review from the author of I Love the Illusion:
“Jill Marie had a rich and informative correspondence with Agnes Moorehead for nearly a decade. From her early teen years to her early twenties, Jill shared her life with Agnes and Agnes responded as only she could: with bluntness, wisdom, feistiness, and above all, with honesty and understanding. This is a wonderful memoir which I can recommend without hesitation” (Charles Tranberg).
