- Description
- This book pays attention to the written narratives of six acclaimed black women in entertainment: Diahann Carroll, Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne, Eartha Kitt, Whoopi Goldberg, and Mary Wilson. Dreher uses autobiography as a tool to see beyond the glamour image of popular culture and to explore each women's full meaning in American culture at large, in the American entertainment culture, and in the politically charged environment of the black community. We learn the real stories of the women as wife, (single) mother, widow, world traveler and wanderer, battered child/battred woman, divorcee, drug abuser, banished and exiled woman, activist/renegade and, ultimately, storyteller.

- Description
- This part memoir and part musical biography of the American singer and drummer Karen Carpenter (1950-1983) documents why the Carpenter's seemingly white-washed music about 'normal love' have significance to the author, people of colour, immigrants, LGBTIQ and others. Tongson interweaves the story of her namesake’s rise to fame in the 1960's and '70s with the trans-Pacific journey of herself and her musicians family between her native Philippines - where imitations of American pop styles flourished - and Carpenter's Southern California, and between notions of romance and queer desires.
