But it was from her mother -- a woman who was dressed by Givenchy and sculpted by Alexander Calder, yet rejected by many a casting agent for her \"dark,\" unconventional looks -- that Susan drew inspiration, particularly when she faced challenges in her own career as a television writer in Hollywood, a town that wasn't always receptive to positive images of people of color. As a result the two developed a bond that mothers and daughters everywhere will find inspiring. Both a universally touching mother-daughter story and a portrait of a dazzling American family, Always Wear Joy is a memoir readers won't soon forget.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51599037923616,"sku":"NEW0060566728","price":16.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61LocW3KeCL_65a343e8-7d94-4300-8580-3d645c85fb19.jpg?v=1779210443","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/always-wear-joy-my-mother-bold-and-beautiful-0060566728","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
