Zusatztext "I can testify to my mother's ability to tell a wild! fascinating! redemptive story! full of heart and joy." Informationen zum Autor Pat Montandon moved from Oklahoma to San Francisco in the 1960s, becoming a newspaper columnist, television host, and writer. She has been interviewed by the New York Times , the Los Angeles Times , the Washington Post , USA Today , People , and numerous other media outlets. She lives in Beverly Hills. Klappentext The glamorous Pat Montandon lived a seemingly perfect life, complete with multimillionaire husband Al Wilsey, loving son Sean, and a penthouse overlooking San Francisco Bay. She socialized with the elite, and was immortalized as a character in Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City. Then everything fell apart. Wilsey divorced her and Sean abandoned her, both opting instead for the affections of Montandon's once-close friend, Dede Traina. Penniless and contemplating suicide, Pat needed to reinvent herself . . . again. Casting her old life aside, she became a humanitarian for peace, a voice speaking out for the world's helpless children. The preacher's daughter, celebrity, and socialite had a new mission: to spread a message of hope in times of crisis. A sumptuous feast of a memoir, Whispers from God is the tale of a poor-girl-turned-rich-turned-poor-again who has found peace through her devotion to something far greater than wealth and fame.
