Todd Fisher


On the way home from Florida last year I convinced Barb to listen to an audio book.  We listened to Carrie Fisher's autobiography and Barb thought it was a great way to spend the long drive.  This time we listened to Todd Fisher's autobiography, Carrie's brother.  A lot of the story was about their mother Debbie Reynolds and her trials and tribulations.  She keep getting swindled by her husbands and they took her for millions of dollars and she had terrible luck with her plans to build a museum to hold her collection of Hollywood costumes and lost millions of dollars on that too.  But she was unsinkable just like The Unsinkable Molly Brown that she played in the movie of the same name.  It was very interesting but it was sad. Debbie died of natural causes the day after Carrie died of an overdose.  It was a 16 hour audio book.  So it took us almost the whole way to Florida.
