Description:Ten Things I Wish I'd Known - Before I Went Out into the Real World
Maria Shriver
Grand Central Publishing
January 5, 2001
Whether meeting the demands of broadcast journalism or balancing the needs of her family, Maria Shriver has conducted her life with wit and impeccable style. Now, she shares with readers her personal Top Ten list of things she wished someone had told her before she embarked on her career and life. This book is expanded from her highly praised Holy Cross College commencement address where she talked about the importance of following one's passion...the strength that comes from failure...and the compromises that are inevitable in marriage and parenthood. Shriver's frank honesty, self-deprecating sense of humor, and wry reminiscences will inspire men and women of all ages. Gutsy, fresh, and memorable, "Ten Things" is sure to help guide all readers in their own quest for fulfillment.
About the Author
Maria Shriver puts her "commas" in the following order: mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend, Peabody Award- and Emmy Award-winning journalist, New York Times bestselling author (for What's Heaven?), and forty-plus woman desperately seeking more time, more patience, a homework helper, and a twenty-one-year-old's skin and body. She lives with her husband and four children in Santa Monica, California.
