All my life I’ve been a performer – an actress, a singer, a dancer, even a talk show host – but never in the wildest dreams of my first 50 years did I ever imagine I would write something that other people would read. I still can’t quite get over it.

Adrienne began her career entertaining our servicemen throughout Southeast Asia. She made her Broadway debut as Tevye’s daughter, Hodel, in Fiddler on the Roof. A Tony nomination and a Theatre World Award for her creation of Rizzo in Grease led to the role of Bea Arthur’s daughter, Carol, in the hit series Maude.

Since then she has become a best selling author, a recording artist, and the star of numerous features, films for television, concert performances, musicals and plays.

A Little Love Bite

Love Bites is the third book I’ve had published; my first was a memoir and the second was a novel, but I had a collaborator on that one. Love Bites is the first novel I wrote all by myself. I, who never in the first 55 years of my life, ever imagined would write one [...]

Quotes by Adrienne Barbeau  (?)

“I’m a short woman with a pretty good body and large breasts — that’s not what I think of as sexy.”
Adrienne Barbeau

“So much of who I am has to do with having had him in my life. From my taste in music to my understanding of human nature. He was my teacher and my mirror. Even the woman I set out to become in the aftermath of our love affair: the woman who could love a man who would love her and stay with her. That transformation came about because I recognized my part in our attachment— my insecurities, my diminished self-worth, my need to be with someone who withheld himself— and worked for years to change all that. I have learned from many people in my life but from Richard most of all.”
Adrienne Barbeau, Scream Queen Confidential: A Memoir And Two Mysteries

“Make sure she’s got black and silver pens, plenty of water, and some hand sanitizer. Make sure you’ve got cash to make change if the fans give you big bills. Does she have enough photos to sign; is her show merchandise on her table; are her name and credits spelled correctly on the banner?”
Adrienne Barbeau, Make Me Dead
