On the Couch On the CouchThe most
refreshingly candid celebrity memoir
in years,
from an actress who has always lived life
on
her own terms. Known to millions as psychiatrist
Dr. Jennifer Melfi on HBO’s hit series The Sopranos,
a role for which she has received multiple Emmy,
Golden Globe, and Screen Actors Guild nominations,
Lorraine Bracco is one of the most recognizable
actresses working today. A glamorous and intelligent
presence on both the big and small screen, as well
as on the Broadway stage, it’s hard to imagine that
this formidable woman was once voted the “ugliest girl
in the sixth grade.” But with guts, determination, and
a very good sense of humor, Lorraine Bracco triumphed-and
did it her way. Born in Brooklyn to an Italian-American
father and a British mother, Bracco survived her ugly-duckling
childhood to become a Wilhelmina model in Paris. On the Couch
traces her rise from fledgling actress to star and wife of acting
heavyweight Harvey Keitel; her film roles, including her Academy
Award-nominated performance in Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas;
the very public custody battle following her divorce from Keitel;
and her glorious return on the series that proved, once and for all,
that even mobsters get the blues. In this engaging memoir,
Lorraine opens up about her career, her marriages, her
determination to be a good mother, and her refusal to
be marginalized as an actress and a woman in a society
obsessed with youth and beauty. She is also startlingly
honest about her victory over depression, her willingness
to seek treatment, and how she found her way again.
And when she was cast on The Sopranos, yet another
incredible new chapter began. Forthright, funny, and,
at fifty, a woman of both uncommon beauty and intelligence,
Lorraine Bracco knows what she wants out of life. In a
conversational memoir as frank and candid as a heart-to-heart
with an old friend, Lorraine Bracco’s On the Couch delivers with
all the force of this amazing woman’s marvelous personality.
