Nora Ephron (1941-2012) was a phenomenal personality, journalist, essayist, novelist, playwright, Oscar- nominated screenwriter, and movie director (Sleepless in Seattle; You've Got Mail; When Harry Met Sally; Heartburn; Julie & Julia). She wrote a slew of bestsellers (I Feel Bad About My Neck: And Other Thoughts on Being a Woman; I Remember Nothing: And Other Reflections; Scribble, Scribble: Notes on the Media; Crazy Salad: Some Things About Women). She was celebrated by Hollywood, embraced by literary New York, and adored by legions of fans throughout the world. Award-winning journalist Richard Cohen, wrote this about his "third-person memoir": "I call this book a third-person memoir. It is about my closest friend, Nora Ephron, and the lives we lived together and how her life got to be bigger until, finally, she wrote her last work, the play, Lucky Guy, about a newspaper columnist dying of cancer while she herself was dying of cancer. I have interviewed many of her other friends--Mike Nichols, Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg, Meryl Streep, Arianna Huffington--but the book is not a name-dropping star turn, but an attempt to capture a remarkable woman who meant so much to so many other women.""--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Ephron, Nora|xFriends and associates. 600 10 Cohen, Richard M.|q(Richard Martin),|d1941-|xFriends and associates. 650 0 Women authors|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Women journalists|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Women motion picture producers and directors|zUnited States|vBiography. 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft
