What is Drew Barrymore : the biography /Lucy Ellis & Bryony Sutherland about?

The six-year-old Drew Barrymore was already an old pro by the time Spielberg handpicked her to star in E.T., having made her screen debut in a dog-food ad at the age of eleven months. But the heir to the Barrymore acting dynasty had also inherited her family's tragic legacy of substance abuse. She took her first drink at nine, progressed to marijuana eighteen months later and began using cocaine at thirteen. By 1988, Drew was in rehab; she finally got clean a year later.In danger of winding up another washed-up child star, Drew instead worked hard to regain the faith of casting directors and eventually reappeared as the sex-symbol star of Poison Ivy. The mid-1990s saw another image transformation, from slut to sweetheart, as she appeared in a string of hit films including Ever After and The Wedding Singer. More recently the actress has added another string to her bow as producer of the hugely successful Charlie's Angels films. Drew's personal life has also been eventful, with a string of fiances and two short-lived marriages.This lively and highly readable account, by accomplished biographers Lucy Ellis and Bryony Sutherland, shows how Drew managed to defy the Barrymore Family Curs
