At Home With Kate Growing Up in Katharine Hepburn's Household

Praise for At Home With Kate"Here are the memories, the people, and the recipes that were closest to Kate Hepburn's heart-her extended family under the guidance of the great caretaker and cook Norah and Norah's loving Irish heirs. This is an unusual look from downstairs to upstairs at the long life of America's number-one female Oscar-winning star. You can never get closer to the great Kate than with this memoir/scrapbook/treasure-trove of Hepburn goodies! A don't-miss for collectors." -Liz Smith, syndicated columnist"I remember many of my visits to Katharine Hepburn's house in New York and fond memories came to mind as I read this very honest, interesting, and straightforward collection of stories. This book is a wonderful tribute. Enjoy." -Robert Wagner, actor"Katharine Hepburn always stayed true to her Connecticut Yankee roots, and a hearty home-cooked meal was fundamental to her well-being. This book is a buffet of tasty tidbits from the private life of Kate the Great." -Christopher Radko, designer"Kate Hepburn had a genius for attracting a group of helpers who became friends and intimates who were able to hold in equilibrium both a sense of duty and responsibility and a genuine and deep affection for their employer. The real achievement of this book is its exploration of those filigree and resilient relationships. And who better to bring us on that journey than Eileen Considine-Meara, whose mother, Norah, was at the core of the vibrant household where Kate relaxed and ruled and was totally and happily at home." -Brian Friel, playwrightConsidine-Meara, Eileen is the author of 'At Home With Kate Growing Up in Katharine Hepburn's Household', published 2006 under ISBN 9780471783763 and ISBN 0471783765.
