The Last Black Unicorn by Tiffany Haddish

She still cleans the toilet the way she was shown by a foster mom who worked as a maid, and she still rolls her joints the way one of her foster dads taught her. She's humble, grateful, down to earth, and funny as hell. Tiffany faced the 'routine' hindrances of climbing the entertainment business ladder, but had the added obstacles of sex, race, and class in her way. After a multitude of jobs, she finally realized that she had talent in an area she never would have suspected: comedy. As an illiterate ninth grader, Tiffany did everything she could to survive. Tiffany never fit in anywhere: not in the households she rotated through in the foster care system, and certainly not the nearly all white high school she had to ride the bus an hour to attend. Her mother wound up with a debilitating brain injury after surviving a car accident. |a Stand-up comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish grew up in one of the poorest parts of South Central Los Angeles. |a Invitation - Mascots and Bar Mitzvahs: High school years - Laugh Factory Comedy Camp - Family and foster care - Titus the boyfriend - The pimp gets pimped - Roscoe the handicapped angel - How I got (restarted) in comedy - Dating - The ex-husband - The long road to comedy success - Tiffany's true Hollywood stories - She ready. |a First Gallery Books hardcover edition. |a The last black unicorn / |c Tiffany Haddish.
