Hepburn's secret memoirs to be published
A secret memoir which Katherine Hepburn had been working on for 20 years and which could not be mentioned until she died is due to be published next week.
The memoir, Kate Remembered, is “full of sentiments she felt should not be made public until her death,” according to a statement from publishers GP Putman.
The actress, who died on Sunday, had been working on the book with Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer A Scott Berg.
“I honestly think I’m the only person with whom she used her time to reflect and to analyse,” he said in a statement.
“Our conversations were not just my priming her with questions. It was often the other way around.
"She’d ask me questions, trying to figure things out – why did I think Spencer Tracy drank so much? What was the meaning of life?”
Berg, who is the author of Lindbergh, wrote the final paragraphs of Kate Remembered a few weeks before she died.
