Andrew Yule is the author of the biographies of Sean Connery: From 007 to Hollywood Icon; Life on the Wire: The Life and Art of Al Pacino; and Richard Lester and the Beatles all published by Donald I. Fine Inc. He divides his time between his home in Ayrshire Scotland and New York City. Told here in her own words this is a story of trial and triumph and of chart-topping success in spite of seemingly impossible odds. Ruth Brown 1928 - 2006 was an American singer-songwriter and actress sometimes known as the "Queen of R&B". This candid revealing autobiography is the true story of a rhythm-and-blues legend her music her landmark confrontation with a major record label and her incredible and much lauded comeback as one of the music scene's most dynamic and versatile performers. Derived from a Kirkus review: A key figure in rhythm and blues looks back on her turbulent past with the help of film journalist Andrew Yule. Ruth Brown from childhood harbored dreams of being a professional singer dreams that her religious but hard-drinking father adamantly opposed. In adolescence Brown managed to begin a singing career on the sly even sneaking off to New York where she won the talent contest at the Apollo Theater's legendary amateur night. She met Blanche Calloway Cab's sister who gave her some polish and poise. Calloway hooked her up with Atlantic Records then a nascent firm specializing in ``race'' records. Atlantic would become known over the next several years as the ``House that Ruth Brown built'' as she landed one hit R&B number after another. In the meanwhile she suffered from a succession of faithless husbands the effects of a car accident that broke both her legs in several places and finally a classical '50s suburban marriage that brought her career to a halt for several years. Much of the second half of the book is taken up with her lengthy battle with Atlantic to get a fair share of the money she had helped the company earn in the 1950s counterposed with her comeback in the 1980s which was climaxed by a Tony Award for her role in the Broadway show Black and Blue. Brown's ultimately successful battle to win monetary justice for herself and other aging R&B stars and her startling recollections of traveling throughout the segregated South lift this above the usual run of show-biz bios.
