Not just Howard Stern's sidekick
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
In a revealingly personal bio, Robin Quivers offers her life : childhood molestation by her father, her own wanderings trying to find happiness, her role as newswoman/commentator on The Howard Stern Show. The impact is even more impressive, hearing the story in her own words [audio cassette book], which she delivers in a straight-forward manner. The book itself covers everything from the forementioned abuse right up through to her introduction to Howard and her years with him, including their disagreements. Robin is much more than a standard sidekick, and her interaction with Howard and the rest of the gang is a vital and integral part of the morning show. Her self-directed insight is evident in the book. Both Howard and Robin (amongst others) have been in or through therapy, and it seems that (for the most part) it has been helpful and corrective in their lives and careers. Whether you purchase the regular book and/or audio book, you will enjoy delving into "Quivers: A Life"

This is one of the most touching books I have read. It tells you everything you always wanted to know about America's favorite Talk Show Hostess. I reccomend this book to any who love The Howard Stern Show and also to those that hate it because it will give you a different perspective.

If you a fan of the Howard Stern show, you MUST read this book! Quivers is a fascinating tale of the life and career of this queen of the media. Robin takes you through her life sparing no details, from sexual abuse by her father to her career in the military, her opinions on race, her media career...the book was too short I wanted more!!!
