Sex and the City, a frank television show about modern urban women and sex, was a ground-breaking hit from the moment it premiered. The key to its success wass its smart and sexy star, Sarah Jessica Parker. Marc Shapiro’s riveting biography charts Parker’s rise to fame, from her poverty-stricken roots in Nelsonville, Ohio to overnight stardom on Broadway in Annie. Sarah Jessica Parker includes insight into her Hollywood success in the television series Square Pegs and breakout movie role in Footloose ; her tragic romance with drug addict Robert Downey Jr. and subsequent high-profile relationships with John F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicholas Cage; her marriage with the man of her dreams, Matthew Broderick; and why she refuses to appear nude in movies and photo shoots.
