Author: Julie Walters

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 304


She was born in fifties Birmingham, daughter of an austere Irish Catholic mother. She was sent to school in a convent and from a young age always wanted to be an actress but to appease her mother she first went into nursing. This didn't last for long though and she soon went to join the Everyman Theatre in Liverpool. West End success followed and she quickly replicated her success on film, earning an Academy Award nomination for her role opposite Michael Caine in Educating Rita. Julie's collaborations with her close friend Victoria Wood have given us, among others, the unforgettable character 'Mrs Overall' in Acorn Antiques and she's recently charmed a new generation of fans playing Mrs Weasley in the Harry Potter films, as well as co-starring with Helen Mirren in Calendar Girls. The winner of countless awards, Julie has continued to be in some of Britain's best TV drama and was awarded an OBE for her services to the theatre. Julie's life away from the public eye has not run so smoothly. Shortly after the death of her mother, her two-year-old daughter Maisie was diagnosed with leukaemia. How Julie and her family coped with this terrible news is the most affecting episode of her book. In her autobiography Julie Walters reveals with characteristic wit and candour the highs and the lows of a remarkable life.
