Publisher Description

Cher: The Memoir, Part One promises to be an engaging and exciting audiobook experience, befitting this incredible book. Read in part by Cher herself, the book is introduced, and each chapter launched, by the author. Rounding out each chapter as she continues the narrative is celebrated stage actor Stephanie J. Block.?Stephanie starred on Broadway in The Cher Show for which she won a Tony Award, Drama Desk Award, and Outer Critics Circle Award. Together, Cher and Stephanie share the storytelling duties, alternating within the chapters to create a unique audiobook treatment that will bring listeners fully into this period of Cher’s life—from her earliest childhood memories, to her meeting Sonny and their ascent into superstardom, her painful divorce from Bono, her relationship with Gregg Allman and her reach for independence. It is a story of creativity, individuality, motherhood, love, and loss, as only Cher could recount.  

“Lending my voice to help deliver Cher’s memoir has been an honor and a thrill. Her life is fascinating, glamorous, surprising, exciting… and at times, completely heartbreaking. Her story is a beautiful balance of ULTIMATE stardom and accessibility. She is CHER for a reason and this book helps the reader get behind ‘the reason,’” says Block. 

“When it came to completing the audiobook, I knew I wouldn't be able to do it all myself due to my dyslexia.? But then I thought of Stephanie, who won the Tony for playing me on Broadway in The Cher Show. I knew she would be the perfect choice to get across to the reader the essence of me. I called her and within hours she re-arranged her schedule to start the recording.? I felt so safe having her help share my story, and she did a beautiful job,” says Cher.

"As a devoted fan since 1986, I excitedly submerged into Cher's memoir, and it did not disappoint at all. Cher's signature wit and honesty shine through every page, drawing readers into her remarkable journey from the humble beginnings of her childhood to the roller coaster of the first 20 years of her career. Her storytelling is both heartfelt and humorous, revealing the struggles and triumphs that have shaped her into the icon we adore today. Cher’s reflections on her relationships—especially the complicated one with Sonny Bono—her music, and the ever-changing landscape of the entertainment industry are particularly engaging. She shares candid anecdotes that highlight her determination, making it clear why she remains a beloved figure. The memoir is not just a chronicle of her life; it’s also a testament to the power of resilience. Cher’s ability to adapt and thrive through the decades is inspiring, and her insights into fame and personal growth are thought-provoking. For long-time fans and newcomers alike, Cher's memoir is a must-read. It captures the essence of a true legend and leaves you eagerly anticipating the next chapter of her extraordinary life."

About Cher

James Edward Marshall (1942–1992) was an American illustrator and writer of children’s books, probably best known for the George and Martha series of picture books. He illustrated books exclusively as James Marshall; when he created both text and illustrations he sometimes wrote as Edward Marshall. In 2007 the US professional librarians posthumously awarded him the biennial Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal for “substantial and lasting contribution” to American children’s literature.
