Synopsis: Betty White first appeared on television in 1949 and went on to have one of the most amazing careers in TV history, starring in shows such as The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Golden Girls, among many others. She was one of the hardest-working actresses of any era, and her sense of humor and perennial optimism carried her through decades of industry changes and delighted millions of fans.

Here We Go Again is a behind-the-scenes look at Betty's career from her start on radio to her first show, Hollywood on Television, to several iterations of The Betty White Show and much, much more. Packed with wonderful anecdotes about famous personalities and friendships, stories of Betty's off-screen life, and the comedienne's trademark humor, this deliciously entertaining book will give readers an entree into Betty's fascinating life, confirming yet again why this funny lady was one of the most memorable and beloved actresses of all time. 

Review: I picked this up thinking it would be light and laugh-out-loud funny. It was a fun read, but it wasn't silly. I loved this look back in time and following Betty's White's career. I primarily remember her from The Golden Girls, a show I watched first with my grandmother and later with college roommates.
