<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Mother to three children, wife to three husbands, and in these reflective years of her life, sculptress, Black Activist and writer. Franny Emerson has done it all. Born into poverty, lost her mother when she was barely five, married her first husband when she was still at school just to get out of the stultifying home in which she was living, and grew up into one of black America's most beautiful sweethearts.</p><p>Now, for the first time, in this tell-all book in which Francesca holds <strong><em>nothing </em></strong>back, you'll read of what happened in Hollywood when the lights went out, and stars like Michael Douglas, Warren Beatty, Jack Lemmon and many others really got up to.</p><p>What an amazing life it really was like as a Playboy Bunny; and Francesca will tell you the inside stories of how a girl from Harlem grew up to be the lover of some of the most famous men in the world, a gangster's moll, and holding the Oscar at the Award Ceremony for one of the greatest movie directors of all time.</p><p>The Chocolate Bunny is the funniest, sharpest and most revealing book ever written about what happens when the movie comes to an end, and real life begins.</p><p>Read this autobiography, and Hollywood will never seem the same again.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<em>Franny is an amazing lady, who I've been blessed to know. Despite the poverty of her upbringing, she's risen to sit at the table and dine with some of the most sophisticated, creative and wealthy individuals - writers, producers, directors and especially movie stars - that Hollywood has ever produced. What a woman!"</em></p><p><strong>Milos Forman, Director of Amadeus</strong></p><p>"<em>Francesca unexpectedly came into my life one sunny afternoon in a Chinese restaurant in Hollywood, and never ever left. I serenaded her at the table where we were eating, and for some time after that, we became the most intimate of companions. It was a short but utterly beautiful affair, one which I'll never forget."</em></p><p><strong>Leonard Cohen, Singer, Songwriter and Poet</strong></p><p>"<em>If ever Nature designed a woman to be a model for all women, a universal Eve, then that woman is surely Francesca Emerson. We met briefly in Hollywood, and we never met again, but her magnetism and allure have never left my mind. Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia, but women like Franny Emerson keep an author grounded."</em></p><p><strong>E.L. Doctorow, Novelist; author of Ragtime</strong></p><br>
