Christina Crawford’s memoir Mommie Dearest (with Angela Tucker)

Chelsea and Angela Tucker (You Should Be Grateful, The Adoptee Next Door) dive into the whirlpool of trauma that is Christina Crawford’s 1978 memoir Mommie Dearest, as well as her mother Joan Crawford’s 2017 autobiography A Portrait of Joan. From the infamous film based on Mommie Dearest, to the extremely damaging adoption process, this memoir has the distinction of being the first “tell all” celebrity memoir!
