The Eleanor Roosevelt Award that I received for women's rights activities is one I treasure

For the first time, I lived alone... in a luxury apartment on Sunset Strip. For a few days I loved the idea, but I got lonely and restless.

I knew from a very young age that there was something very wrong with me

I still have highs and lows, just like any other person. What's missing is the lack of control over the super highs, which became destructive, and the super lows, which are immediately destructive.

I never did quite fit the glamour mode. It is life with my husband and family that is my high now.

I kind of like the position of being the fair-haired savior of my mother

We call my son's role in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy Sean's little independent movie.
