About me

Introduction Christina was born in Los Angeles, California, to an unwed teenage mother; her father was in the Navy at the time. She was adopted out-of-state in 1940 by Joan Crawford. Christina wrote the best-selling non-fiction book Mommie Dearest (1978), which characterized her mother as a cruel, overbearing, alcoholic who was more interested in her career than in her children. In 1981, a movie version of the same title was released. She has also published books as sequel, Survivor and other books focusing on family violence, as well as novels.
