<div><P><B>Something about Olympia Dukakis just speaks to people. In her signature straight-talk style, she tells the story of her own history and career.</B></P><P>Olympia Dukakis, internationally known movie and theater star, was born into a Greek family in Lowell, Massachusetts. As a first generation Greek-American, Olympia &#8220;lived in the hyphen&#8221; and struggled to reconcile her American desires with her family&#8217;s old-world traditions. ASK ME AGAIN TOMORROW tells the story of Olympia&#8217;s struggle to find her place as an American, as a woman and as a star. It specifically explores the relationship between Olympia, whose main ambition was to live her life exactly as she wanted, and her mother, who spent a lifetime constrained by a tradition that delegated her to second class. Like Sidney Poitier&#8217;s THIS LIFE and THE MEASURE OF A MAN, this is a book that is more than a celebrity memoir. ASK ME AGAIN TOMORROW will speak to many audiences: readers who also experienced America as an adopted country; readers interested in the art of acting; readers interested in autobiography, and particularly to female readers who have struggled with fitting their own aspirations in with the needs of family. It is a book that will endure.</P></div>
