This Time Together

One of the things Carol Burnett is famous for is her practice of "bumping up the lights" in the TV studio and skillfully fielding candid and often-hilarious questions from her audience. Here, inspired by those moments, the award-winning comedian warmly presents engaging anecdotes from her personal life and career, ranging from her adolescence in Hollywood and early television and Broadway experiences to her TV successes, marriages, famous and infamous friends, and family. Burnett's bright and engaging tone brings to life both funny and sometimes-strange experiences with Jimmy Stewart, Lucille Ball, and her variety show cast, among others. As she tells stories about her remarkable life, this upbeat audio provides keen insights on an American treasure. W.A.G. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
