A New York Times bestseller A candid, compulsively readable, hilarious, and heartbreaking memoir of resilience and redemption by comedic genius Molly Shannon At age four, Molly Shannon’s world was shattered when she lost her mother, baby sister, and cousin in a car accident with her father at the wheel. Held together by her tender and complicated relationship with her grieving father, Molly was raised in a permissive household where her gift for improvising and role-playing blossomed alongside the fearlessness that would lead her to become a celebrated actress. From there, Molly ventured into the wider world of New York and Los Angeles show business, where she created her own opportunities and developed her daring and empathetic comedy. Filled with behind-the-scenes stories involving everyone from Whitney Houston to Adam Sandler to Monica Lewinsky, many told for the first time here, Hello, Molly! spans Molly’s time on Saturday Night Live—where she starred alongside Will Ferrell, Adam Sandler, Cheri Oteri, Tracy Morgan, and Jimmy Fallon, among many others. At the same time, it explores with humor and candor her struggle to come to terms with the legacy of her father, a man who both fostered her gifts and drive and was left with the impossible task of raising his kids alone after the loss of her mother. Witty, winning, and told with tremendous energy and heart, Hello, Molly!, written with Sean Wilsey, sheds new and revelatory light on the life and work of one of our most talented and free-spirited performers.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I went to a nun/psychiatrist who asked me to draw a picture of my family. I drew a picture where my dad had very long arms and all of the women had chopped-off arms. I was very sad, and Father Murray, the priest at St. Dominic School, understood and loved me for it. #2 I had been through a war in kindergarten, and I was still fighting it in school. I didn’t get close to female teachers, but I felt like they couldn’t really see how hard I was struggling. #3 When I was four years old, I fell down by the entrance to my classroom, and when I was seven, my father moved out of Aunt Bernie’s house because he was fed up with her husband, John Schulte. #4 I had to repeat first grade with a mentally handicapped girl and a boy who was a future convict. I felt misunderstood, and was ashamed that my dad had asked the school to hold me back a year because of all we’d been through.
