Description

Emmy award-winning actor Barbara Williams opens up about her brutal yet often beautiful childhood in a British Columbian logging town, from her brother's suicide to her mother's poverty. The family moved more than 27 times, and mental illness, substance abuse and injustice followed wherever they went. They lived a hard small-town life and suffered, but Williams always hoped for a better life. It's a miracle she survived to bring us these stories. In doing so, she proves there is one thing that can survive the worst of life and even death: love without judgment.

Author Biography:

BARBARA WILLIAMS is a Canadian musician and actress. Early in her career, Williams starred in the films Thief of Hearts and City of Hope. She won a Canadian Emmy Award for Best Actress for the telepic Mother Trucker. She was a member of the Resident Theatre Company in Vancouver, and among her more than thirty stage roles, she portrayed Amelia Earhart in the musical Amelia at Canada's National Arts Center, Joan Baez at the Met Theatre in Los Angeles, and Lady Macbeth in La Jolla, California, under Tony Award winner Des McAnuff's direction. As a musician she has performed in the United States and Canada, often in concerts devoted to peace, workers' rights, and the environment. The Hope in Leaving is her first book. She lives and works in Los Angeles with her husband, Tom Hayden, and her son, Liam.
