Beginning each chapter with lyrics she wrote and still performs today, she breezily describes the development of her alter-ego, Carol Marks, as she rebels against her strict suburban upbringing and joins the counter-culture, hoping to make it in the music business.The author graduated from Rutgers and now performs a repertoire of jazz, rhythm and blues, pop, and her own work. Selick taught piano and voice for many years, and her recordings include "Life is Believing in You" and "Just Gonna Think About Today."
