Emmy Award-winning actress Sharon Gless tells all in this
laugh-out-loud, juicy, "unforgettably memorable" (Lily Tomlin)
memoir about her five decades in Hollywood, where she took on some
of the most groundbreaking roles of her time. Anyone who has seen
Sharon Gless act in Cagney & Lacey, Queer as Folk, Burn Notice,
and countless other shows and movies, knows that she's someone who
gives every role her all. She holds nothing back in Apparently
There Were Complaints, a hilarious, deeply personal memoir that
spills all about Gless's five decades in Hollywood. A
fifth-generation Californian, Sharon Gless knew from a young age
that she wanted to be an actress. After some rocky teenage years
that included Sharon's parents' divorce and some minor (and
not-so-minor) rebellion, Gless landed a coveted spot as an
exclusive contract player for Universal Studios. In 1982, she
stepped into the role of New York Police Detective Christine Cagney
for the series Cagney & Lacey, which eventually reached an
audience of 30 million weekly viewers and garnered Gless with two
Emmy Awards. The show made history as the first hour-long drama to
feature two women in the leading roles. Gless continued to make
history long after Cagney & Lacey was over. In 2000, she took
on the role of outrageous Debbie Novotny in Queer as Folk. Her
portrayal of a devoted mother to a gay son and confidant to his gay
friends touched countless hearts and changed the definition of
family for millions of viewers. Apparently There Were Complaints
delves into Gless's remarkable career and explores Gless's
complicated family, her struggles with alcoholism, and her fear of
romantic commitment as well as her encounters with some of
Hollywood's biggest names. Brutally honest and incredibly
relatable, Gless puts it all out on the page in the same way she
has lived-never with moderation.
