520    A luminous and inspiring portrait of a Black pioneer and 
       artistic force-Eartha Kitt-and one of the most moving 
       mother/daughter stories in Hollywood history. In this 
       unique combination of African-American, music, and 
       cultural history, we come to know one of the greatest 
       stars the world has ever seen-Eartha Kitt-as revealed by 
       the person who knew her best, her daughter. Eartha, who 
       was a mix of Black, Cherokee, and white, identified as 
       Black, but Kitt, her biological daughter by a white man, 
       is blonde and pale. This is the story of a little white 
       girl raised by her natural mother, who was the biggest 
       Black celebrity in the world. For three decades until Kitt
       finally married, they traveled the world together, mother 
       and daughter. Eartha came from a hard background (she was 
       born on a cotton plantation) and did not have her own 
       familial ties to lean on-she and Kitt were each other's 
       whole world. Eartha's legacy is still felt today. Not only
       do we still listen to "Santa Baby" every Christmas, she 
       starred as Helen of Troy opposite Orson Welles in "Dr. 
       Faustus" and stole the show in The Emperor's New Groove. 
       Lupita Nyong'o was recently asked to name the two people 
       she admired most. Her choices were Eartha Kitt and 
       Katherine Hepburn. In these pages, Eartha Kitt comes to 
       life so vividly you will feel as if you'd met her. FIlled 
       with love and poignant laughter, Eartha & Kit captures the
       passion and energy of two remarkable women.
