In this funny, brief but often poignant memoir,
Mrs. Gari lets it be known that beautiful, no nonsense Mama
was just as hilarious, if not more so, than Papa.
It also turns out that very proper Mama also happened to be quite
the card shark.
Mr. Cantor was a show biz jack of all trades:
singer, songwriter, comic, author and actor onstage,
in film and on radio.
[He was the recipient of a special 1956 Oscar
for Distinguished Service to the Film Industry.]
During the family Hollywood years, the Cantor home was
open house to countless stars of the era.
You'll also love the well-told stories of life with Mama,
who wasn't the stay-at-home-Mom most think.
The chapter titles, all songs made famous by
Mr. Makin' Whoopee himself, are a delight.
