On Reflection: An Autobiography

This autobiography of the first lady of the American theatre presents the many Helens of Helen Hayes. It is addressed to her grandchildren, as a legacy to be read when they are grown up. Actually, in setting down all the family stories, the backstage anecdotes and her recollections of spiritual struggle, she has produced a legacy for all of us. Deeply moving, and affectionately witty, her autobiography is an affirmation of the faith that first gave it impetus.
