I saw her a few years ago when her show was called, "That's Italian" and she toured with Julius LaRosa. I loved the show.
I also enjoyed the book. The reader gets as sense of her dad that is outside the myths and promotional image.
Worth reading.
I don't know what happened to LaRosa. I remember when Arthur Godfrey fired him on the air. Godfrey had no class and this was a clear indication.

But when I heard LaRosa, he still had a good voice.
And Deanna is the closest we get to Dean Martin.
