Diana Eden,
Author

I'm the proud author of two self-published memoirs, Stars in their Underwear and Getting Old and Other Indignities, in which I share stories–both the good and the bad–from my 50-year career on stage and as a costume designer to the stars.

Now Available!

What does it feel like to transition from a whirlwind career in showbusiness to retirement? From your seventies to your eighties? 
 

In Getting Old and Other Indignities, I answer these questions and more, sharing my life as I continue to  work on films such as "Jason Bourne," while mourning the loss of my husband. I take you through my self-reinvention as a single, childless older woman,  striving for travel, adventure, and style in my eighties. And hopefully I'll make you laugh a little with recognition of our common struggles as "Oldsters."

“A wonderful, funny and honest story of aging disgracefully, from an incredible woman who shatters stereotypes and reminds us that we hold the power to create our own adventures at any age.”

Carolyn Ray, CEO, Journeywoman.com

Who wouldn’t want to read about celebrities behind the facade, in their dressing rooms, in the wings? Hear what they are really like?
 

In Stars in Their Underwear, I pull back the curtain on stage and screen personalities such as Carol Burnett, Debra Messing, George Clooney, Betty White, Dixie Carter, Thomas Haden Church, Kaley Cuoco, and many more.

 

I share my experiences from the heart of numerous history-making events: the Inauguration of President Lyndon Johnson, the Diana Ross concert in Central Park, the MGM Fire of 1980, and appearances in two iconic films, "The Producers" and "Valley of the Dolls."

"Award winning Emmy Nominee Diana Eden takes you for a trip down memory lane with humor, tantalizing tales, and never a dull moment..."
