It's not always the case that telling your own story is more truthful, or more personal, than having someone else tell it. We don't always see ourselves accurately, and we tend to hide our own shame. Victoria Jackson's Is My Bow Too Big? is a rare example of autobiography the way it could and should be -- nuanced, intimate, poignant, and compelling.

Ever wonder: What's it like working on Saturday Night Live? What's it like to be a Baptist virgin hanging out at the Playboy mansion? What's it like to be a conservative in Hollywood? How did Victoria Jackson go from being a limber "airhead" on SNL to the Tea Party Princess?

No one knows more about what it's like to be Victoria Jackson in all the various roles she has played than Victoria Jackson herself. And in this book, she doesn't hold the reader at a safe distance. She doesn't just tell you about her life ... she invites you inside it.
