I'm the One That I Want

Margaret Cho displays her numerous sides in this funny, fierce, & honest memoir. At age 16 she dropped out of school & began touring as a standup comedian. By 23 she was the star of her own sitcom, All-American Girl,Ó the groundbreaking show featuring TV's first Asian American family. But the road to fame wasn't smooth -- & when the sitcom crashed & burned so did Margaret. Without ever losing her trademark humor, Margaret tells her astonishing tale of dieting her way into the hospital, drinking her way into oblivion, then rising from the ashes in her smash-hit one-woman show & record-breaking concert film. Here, she has written a book every bit as hilarious, shocking, & insightful as she is.Cho, Margaret is the author of 'I'm the One That I Want ', published 2001 under ISBN 9780756787509 and ISBN 0756787505.
