First Half

In this honest and entertaining autobiography, the famous and widely loved Toni Lamond reveals a private life as dramatic and colourful as any she portrayed onstage.

From her spectacular rise to fame, to her marriage which ended in tragedy and led to her near-fatal addiction to prescription dugs, Toni Lamond exposes the full story that lies behind Australian show business. Beyond the bright lights of press conferences, opening nights and parties, she describes the poverty, misfortune and sheer hard work that is part of an actor’s life.
