(Hardcover - 2010) ISBN: 9780307718129 Subject: BIOGRAPHY Publisher: CROWN ARCHETYPE In this compelling memoir, the 64-year-old founder of Susan G. Komen for the Cure mixes details from her soap opera¡Vlike life with facts about breast cancer. Nancy Goodman of Peoria, Illinois, morphs from a chubby Jewish girl (in second grade, she tips the scale at more than 100 pounds) to a nearly six-foot glamazon. After breast cancer kills her beautiful 36-year-old sister, Suzy, Nancy starts the world¡¦s largest breast-cancer charity in her memory. At age 37, she discovers a lump in her own chest. Nancy gets by with a little help from her second husband, Norman Brinker, the casual-dining gazillionaire and a member of the Susan G. Komen board from its inception in 1982 until his death last year. |
