About the Author
Linda Gray is an award winning actress, an accomplished director, a former United Nations Goodwill Ambassador and one of the world’s most recognized and admired stars.
Her award winning portrayal of ‘Sue Ellen’, in the original TV series “Dallas”, brought her international fame and critical acclaim earning her an Emmy nomination for Best Actress and numerous international awards including Germany’s Bambi Award, Italy’s Il Gato for Best Actress on Television, and she was voted ‘Woman of the Year’ by The Hollywood Radio & Television Society. After eleven years as the number 1 show on television, “Dallas” returned to TNT in 2012 and ran for 3 seasons.
Linda’s memoir “The Road to Happiness is Always Under Construction” was published in September.
It is rare when a memoir perfectly reflects the author and the times in which she lives. Linda Gray’s book accomplishes that and more. Much more. In a special trip to Dallas, Linda will share her charming, inspiring stories firsthand from The Road to Happiness Is Always Under Construction.
“Authors at The Adolphus” is delighted to honor her with a beautiful luncheon in The French Room worthy of her graciousness and generosity toward others. On Friday, April 22, TV host Jocelyn White will conduct an engaging conversation with Linda about The Road to Happiness is Always Under Construction and her award-winning portrayals that have earned her international fame and critical acclaim, year after year. There will be opportunity to visit with her as she personally inscribes books purchased at the luncheon.
The event will begin with a reception and book signing, from 11:15 a.m. to 12:00 noon. Linda and Jocelyn will take the stage at noon. For 45 minutes these two longtime friends will delight and entertain you, as they take you down the "Road to Happiness" – and, later, answer your questions. A gourmet luncheon – created by Executive Chef Marcus Strietzel – follows, from 12:45 to 1:45 p.m.
