The late Jackie Susann, author of 60’s bestsellers like ‘Valley Of The Dolls‘ had a life as steamy as her fiction.
There are two movie versions of her life in the works.
One stars Bette Midler and Nathan Lane, as her husband Irvin Mansfield. Due next spring, it’s called ‘Isn’t She Great‘ and it’s being written by Paul Rudnick.
Then there’s a TV movie starring Michelle Lee. It’s based on the book by Barbara Seaman‘s biography ‘Lovely Me‘ and will premiere on the USA network next season.
