Life and career
She attended UCLA and SMU. She began her writing career as a junior writer and television writer in the late 1940s and early 1950s, as a child performer on stage and television. She lived in the United Kingdom and Europe from the mid-1950s to 1972.
She lived in Massachusetts, New York, and Connecticut before returning to Beverly Hills, California, where she currently resides. Barbra Streisand appeared in the film Funny Girl (1968) co-writing the first draft of the screenplay. She wrote her first book, The Survivors, in 1968, and she has written eight books, sixteen biographies, three children's books, two memoirs (one with her late husband—composer-pianist Stephen Citron) and an autobiography.
She is a former president of the Authors Guild and currently serves on the board of directors. Her collection of literary manuscripts, papers, and related documents is now part of UCLA's Special Collections Department, where she has taught writing.
