The real Donna Summer

Ordinary Girl is Donna Summer's long awaited autobiography, after years of unauthorized biographies. It's the inspiring tale of her journey from a little girl in Boston, through her days in the rock group The Crow, to New York, to Germany where she first found success in musicals, to her music career. If you're looking for sensationalism, dirt being dished, this isn't the book for you. What you get is a joyous, triumphant...

Extra ordinary girl!

A very candid look at the life of Disco queen, Donna Summer. Very sensitively and well written, and with lots of previously unseen photos too. I came out of reading this book with a deeper love and respect for this class act. If you're looking for dirt being dished, this isn't the book for you. What you get is almost an adventure along the journey of this extra ordinary woman's life. Highly reccommended!

Great Book. Go Summer Go.

I personally loved the book. I have been a Donna Summer fan for the last twenty five years. I found the book to be very interesting and spell binding. It did not take me very long to read it, even with a busy schedule. I was touched about her honesty concerning her career and family life. Most artists try to sugar coat their lives, but not Donna. She has always been the tell it like it is kind of person.Several of the reviews...
