Iconic entertainer Liza Minnelli has recently announced a book deal with Grand Central Publishing to pen her memoir, in collaboration with longtime friend and collaborator Michael Feinstein. The memoir is set to be released in spring 2026 in hardcover print, e-book, and audio editions.
Liza Minnelli, known for her illustrious career and being the daughter of Judy Garland and Vincent Minnelli, has accumulated an impressive collection of awards, including Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards. The decision to write her memoir comes after feeling misrepresented in various media portrayals and wanting to share her story authentically with her fans.
In a statement, Minnelli expressed her motivation for writing the memoir, citing instances where her story was inaccurately depicted. She emphasized her desire to set the record straight and share her life experiences with her audience.
Teaming up with Michael Feinstein, a close friend and renowned figure in the music industry, Minnelli aims to create a candid and compelling narrative that delves into both her professional successes, such as her roles in 'Cabaret' and 'Liza with a Z,' and her personal struggles, including marriages and battles with substance abuse.
Grand Central Publishing, the publisher behind the memoir, expressed enthusiasm for the project, highlighting Minnelli's unique perspective and the opportunity for readers to gain insight into her remarkable journey. The acquisition of the North American rights to Minnelli's memoir signals a significant step in bringing her story to a global audience.
After a lifetime of being in the spotlight and having her narrative shaped by others, Liza Minnelli's decision to share her story in her own words marks a pivotal moment in her career. Fans and readers can anticipate a revealing and heartfelt account of a life filled with both triumphs and challenges, as Minnelli opens up about her experiences in the entertainment industry.
