Acclaimed singer and songwriter Rosanne Cash will be releasing a new memoir, Composed on Viking Press- on-sale August 10, 2010.Here's the details from the press release:
Composed is full of personal recollections and anecdotes. Moving, inspirational, honest, and witty, Rosanne writes compellingly about her own upbringing in Southern California with a father who was often absent, and at the time struggling with drugs, and about her relationships with her mother, Vivian Liberto, and later, her stepmother, June Carter Cash. She writes about her teenage years and a hilarious stint working for Columbia Records in London; recording her first album; gradually working her way to chart-topping success and what that notoriety cost her; her marriage to Rodney Crowell, a union that made them Nashville’s premier couple at the time; taking a new direction in her music and leaving Nashville for New York, moving there permanently in 1991; the process of songwriting; her life-changing ordeal with brain surgery; balancing her roles as recording artist and mother to five children; dealing with the painful loss of her parents; and the fulfillment she has found with her husband, the Grammy Award-winning producer and musician John Leventhal.
Cash is the author of Bodies of Water and the children’s book Penelope Jane: A Fairy’s Tale. Her essays and fiction have been published in The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and New York magazine. She lives in New York City with her husband and children.
