Veteran singer, actress and director Barbra Streisand, the top-selling female music artist of all time, will recount her six decades in show business in a memoir due in 2017.
It will be the first authorized autobiography from the 73-year-old star, in which she will also delve into memories of her childhood.
Brian Tart, president and publisher of Viking, an imprint of Penguin Random House, said in a statement, “Barbra Streisand’s memoir is the entertainment story that has been on the top of every publisher’s wish list for years.”
The Brooklyn, New York native has sold more than 72 million copies of her music in the United States, and last year made history by becoming the only performer to have a No. 1 album in each of the past six decades.
