I think every show I do, whether I am doing eight shows a week of a Broadway show... I think, that's a show I'll never get back... I go home at night and I think to myself, that was my favorite.

There's so much, I guess I want to say, nonsense about show business now. Because of reality television. I don't get this, because I was never raised to get this, but I don't understand wanting to be famous. Maybe it's because I was born famous, but I don't get it.
Lorna Luft
Image
I'm extraordinarily honored and proud when I am told that I am part of the Broadway community and part of the Broadway family. Because, Broadway is a family. And it doesn't matter if you did one show or if you did fifty shows.
Lorna Luft
Image
My mother's life had been destroyed by the Garland legend.
Lorna Luft
Image
My mother's suicide attempts were a way to release anxiety and get attention. Some of the attempts were drug reactions she didn't even remember later on.

If you really want to kill yourself, you get a gun and blow your head off
