Readers can expect Scott to delve into her early childhood where she was raised by her grandmother, a hoarder, who acted as Scott’s manager — and not always favorably. Scott will share her experiences as a child actor being directed by Alfred Hitchcock in the 1964 film Marnie and how she later took control of her career and her life.
Count on Scott sharing stories about YR and what it’s like being half of the show’s iconic supercouple — Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki! Scott’s not the only YR star to take pen to paper. Her leading man, Braeden, penned his memoir, I’ll Be Damned, a few years ago. In 2012, the late Jeanne Cooper (ex-Katherine) authored Not Young, Still Restless.
