Streisand's memoir focuses on her early struggles to become an actress, eventually singing as a way to earn a living; the recording of some of her albums; the years of effort involved in making ‘Yentl’; her direction of ‘The Prince of Tides’; her friendships with figures ranging from Marlon Brando to Madeleine Albright; her political advocacy; and the fulfillment she’s found in her marriage to James Brolin.”
The memoir was first mentioned in 2015, and scheduled for two years later, although it didn’t have a title at the time. The eighty years old actress and singer has long been wary of discussing her private life, including her relationships with actor Elliott Gould and producer Jon Peters. She has been married to Brolin since 1998.
