Mobi Rita Moreno: A Memoir with Free PDF EDITION Download Now!

In this New York Times bestselling memoir, Rita Moreno shares her remarkable journey from a young girl with simple beginnings in Puerto Rico to Hollywood legend—and one of the few performers, and the only Hispanic, to win an Oscar, Grammy, Tony and two Emmys.Born Rosita Dolores Alverio in the idyll of Puerto Rico, Moreno, at age five, embarked on a harrowing sea voyage with her mother and wound up in the harsh barrios of the Bronx, where she discovered dancing, singing, and acting as ways to escape a tumultuous childhood. Making her Broadway debut  by age thirteen—and moving on to Hollywood in its Golden Age just a few years later—she worked alongside such stars as Gary Cooper, Yul Brynner, and Ann Miller.When discovered by Louis B. Mayer of MGM, the wizard himself declared: “She looks like a Spanish Elizabeth Taylor.”  Cast by Gene Kelly as Zelda Zanders in Singin’ in the Rain and then on to her Oscar-winning performance in West Side Story, she catapulted to fame—yet found herself repeatedly typecast as the “utility ethnic,” a role she found almost impossible to elude.Here, for the first time, Rita reflects on her struggles to break through Hollywood’s racial and sexual barriers. She explores the wounded little girl behind the glamorous façade—and what it took to find her place in the world. She talks candidly about her relationship with Elvis Presley, her encounters with Howard Hughes, and the passionate romance with Marlon Brando that nearly killed her. And she shares the illusiveness of a “perfect” marriage and the incomparable joys of motherhood.Infused with Rita Moreno’s quick wit and deep insight, this memoir is the dazzling portrait of a stage and screen star who longed to become who she really is—and triumphed.

Mobi Rita Moreno: A Memoir with Free PDF EDITION!

This was an excellent biography of the life of Rita Moreno. From her days in Puerto Rico as a young happy child to a shocking arrival to Spanish Harlem in New York City where she and her mother lived in very difficult circumstances. A very determined young woman she went to each and every audition. At this time, her Mother gave her too much freedom and at times it was dangerous. She arrived in Hollywood with emotional problems including quite a few stepfathers and the death of one brother in addition to Francisco the brother her mother left in Puerto Rico. She loved this brother and never knew what happened to him. She encountered Marlon Brando, a man with many emotional problems himself. She refers to him as beyond handsome and words couldn't describe how beautiful. At that time, according to her, he was an Adonis. He had a muscled physique at the time although later on he became very obese. Addicted to women, he seduced them and left them although I don't think he did this deliberately. She almost succeeded in killing herself she was so addicted to Brando, his intelligence, charisma and talents in bed. She says she had two great loves in the life, Marlon Brando and the doctors she married. Although she was married to him for over 35 years. The marriage wasn't that happy because the doctor had a way of controlling her. Never the less, because of his levity and faithfulness she made the concessions which allowed her to stay in the marriage. After Brando, she was looking for peace and some semblance of serenity. Although, she had two great loves in the life, I think Brando was the love of her life. It was sad that he was so emotionally disturbed himself because when he died, there was only a picture of Rita Moreno in his house. The Hispanic version of Elizabeth Taylor never forgot him and he never forgot her. It was a riveting book for me and I read it in three nights. The book arrived in a timely manor, was in good condition and packaged very well. I would reccommend the seller and the book. It you like celebrity biographies for fun, this is a book to purchase. In fact, after I read it, I gave it to my girlfriend, she read it quickly to and gave it to another girlfriend to read.
