Despite numerous obstacles, small-town girl Lenore Zann caught the acting bug early. She was discovered at 19 and chosen to play Marilyn Monroe in a rock opera based on the life of the tragic movie star. Her powerhouse performance kickstarted her career, leading to hundreds of acting credits in film, TV, theatre, radio, and animation, including her iconic portrayal of Rogue in the very popular animated series X-Men: The Animated Series.
A Rogue's Tale reveals the good, the bad, and the ugly in show business. It recounts her personal interactions with Stephen Spielberg, Tiny Tim, Craig Russell, and Rita MacNeil, dating celebrities Keanu Reeves, Andy Gibb, Lou Gossett Jr, and Page Fletcher, and working with award-winning actors and directors such as Sam Rockwell, Mark Wahlberg, Clark Gregg, Henry Czerny, Atom Egoyan, Antoine Fuqua, and other Hollywood heavyweights.
Despite a successful acting career, in a strange twist of fate, like Marilyn Monroe herself, alcohol and drugs brought Lenore to her knees at the age of 36. But unlike Marilyn (who succumbed to her addictions at the same age), Lenore decided the braver choice was to live, which led to a powerful spiritual awakening and a new sense of purpose. This decision has enabled Lenore to fly to even greater heights on the magical wings of Disney.
Like her iconic character Rogue, Lenore Zann's determination to rise from the ashes again and again, to stand up not only for herself but for others, is a masterful lesson in how to roll with the punches, to awaken the inner superhero, and constantly re-emerge from devastation and destruction--like the mythical Phoenix.
A Rogue's Tale will appeal to readers of all ages who are looking for a fresh voice and perspective on life with a pop culture twist to help them navigate their own journey during uncertain and dangerous times.
