The unmistakeable and unique Jeanne Little with her amazing eyelashes and fabulous, if somewhat startling, dress sense (remember the green garbage bag frock?) is one of Australia's most loved and best known show business celebrities. A zany comedian with the voice of a truck driver, Jeanne got her start as a guest on the Mike Walsh Show in 1974 and never looked back. For fifteen years she was the queen of Australian daytime television and beyond. With her distinctive voice, off-beat humour and flair for the innovative and unusual, Jeanne is an extraordinary woman. From Gold Logies, to the Order of Australia, to the hearts of Australian television and cabaret audiences alike, Jeanne wins them all. There is no one else quite like her. Here for the first time, along with revealing accounts of what really went on behind the craziness of Jeanne's seemingly accidental success, is the story of her remarkable childhood and her sometimes turbulent, often controversial but never dull life. Hilarious, heart-warming and moving, with dollops of Jeanne's own unique glamour and distinctive style, this is an engrossing biography of one of the true living treasures of Australia's stage and screen.
