One More Time is a memoir by comedian Carol Burnett. It was published by Random House in 1986 and became a New York Times nonfiction bestseller.
Burnett spent her childhood in a Depression-scarred Hollywood neighborhood, where she lived in a dingy single-room apartment with her grandmother, a hypochondriac devoted to Christian Science. The child of alcoholic parents - a mother who fantasized about success in Tinseltown and a father who eventually was committed to a public sanatorium - she constantly daydreamed about a show business career while at the same time realizing the odds of achieving one were very much against her, until a mysterious benefactor financed her move to New York City. In this book, she presents a coming of age tale that’s humorous, heartbreaking, and hopeful.
The book served as the basis for the play Hollywood Arms, which Burnett co-wrote with her daughter Carrie Hamilton.
Date of release: 1986
Length: 1 hour 29 minutes
