Many of us have a memory that revolves around a Julie Andrews' play, song, or movie. For me it is a fond recollection of my Aunt Annabelle taking my sister and me to see "The Sound of Music" on the big screen in Columbus when we were teenagers. I have been a fan of Julie Andrews ever since.
This is the story of her life before fame-from her birth in 1935 up to 1962 when Walt Disney cast her as "the world's most famous nanny" in Mary Poppins. In "Home" Julie shares her family history, what it was like living through the London Blitz of World War II, her parents divorce, and her childhood spent on radio and in concert halls all over England. Her professional career began at the age of twelve and by the age of 18 she left home for the United States where she began her career on Broadway. Over 50 personal photos are included. If you are a Julie Andrews fan, you are sure to enjoy "Home: A Memoir of My Early Years."
