Memories Are Forever : A Memoir of a Life in Theatre and In Love (Paperback)

"Theatre is my heritage - I was born into the theatre," says Charlotte Chafran. In this captivating autobiography, she takes us on a journey through her life as leading lady of the very prestigious Yiddish Art Theatre, performing alongside its founder/director, the eminent actor, Maurice Schwartz, in New York, across America, and around the world. She tells fascinating stories about her travels that include meeting and performing for such legends as Marc Chagall, Charlie Chaplin, and Albert Einstein. She later gave it all up at the very height of her career, when she met the man of her dreams - withdrawing from the theatre to walk, instead, at his side. There are dazzling stories about the life they shared on the international scene as they divided their time between Paris and New York. Reading her story is like listening to Charlotte speak from the page. Chances are you won't be able to put this intriguing book down.
