Silent Sisters: Profiles of the short lives of Karen Carpenter, Patsy Cline, Cass Elliot, Ruby Elzy, Janis Joplin and Selena Quintanilla-Perez.

Together, they sang it all: from Broadway tunes to classical, from folk and spirituals to popular songs and blues, and from country music to Tejano/Latino. Their triumphs and tragedies are told here with an eye to the possibility that exhaustion from relentless travel schedules may have influenced the dramas and anxieties surrounding their early deaths. The book celebrates these astonishing women, on and off the road, and recalls the songs they made famous.
