NOTES
Read by Anna Fields
The legendary "Love Goddess" was a huge box-office star, and her sultry beauty and sensational figure turned her into the ultimate sex-symbol. Yet behind the smoldering image lay a tragic secret that wrecked her private life. Extremely shy as a child, Rita Hayworth was forced by her vaudevillian father to be his dancing partner-and he abused her as well. Her need for protection led her into five disastrous marriages. If This Was Happiness is at once sensational, revealing, and compassionate
