Maria Shriver - the beautiful First Lady of California - signed copies of her new book"Just Who Will You Be?" at The Grove's Barnes & Noble
The Grove's Barnes & Noble was crowded. Scores of fans with her new book Just Who Will You Be in hand, formed a LONG line. A legion of paparazzi awaited... And then Maria Shriver - the famous journalist, author, Kennedy family's descendant, wife of Arnold Schwarzenegger and yes, the First Lady of California - has made her entrance. We all know that she is beautiful, talented and brainy. Surprisingly, she is also considerate, warm and generous. In the Lalaland of over-inflated egos encountering a Celebrity who's actually earned the status and remained well-grounded is almost shocking. Kudos to Maria Shriver! To her continuing success as a person and an author!
Maria Shriver's inspirational book is a candid self-portrait of a woman in transition. As longtime NBC anchorwoman, Maria Shriver was thrown for a loop when she was asked to resign after her husband was elected governor of California. Reprinted in full, Just Who Will You Be is the speech Shriver made at her nephew’s high school graduation where she describes herself as a 50-year-old work-in-progress, and in a way asks all of us, just who will you be?

Steve Garvey Signs "My Bat Boy Days: Lessons I Learned from the Boys of Summer" at Borders Northridge
On the evening of March 28, 1956, Steve Garvey's
father, a Greyhound bus driver in the Tampa Bay area, asked his young son if
he'd like to accompany him as he drove the Brooklyn Dodgers to a
spring-training game with the New York Yankees. For Garvey, a baseball card
collector and an aspiring Little Leaguer, the opportunity stretched beyond
his wildest imagination and marked the beginning of a legendary career and
life in baseball. |
