Autobiography Of An Actress: Or Eight Years On The Stage is a memoir written by Anna Cora Mowatt, an American actress, playwright, and author. In this book, Mowatt shares her personal experiences and insights into the world of theater during the mid-19th century. She describes her struggles and triumphs as a young actress, her encounters with famous actors and actresses of the time, and her travels throughout the United States and Europe. Mowatt also discusses the challenges she faced as a female performer in a male-dominated industry and the societal expectations placed on women during this era. Throughout the book, Mowatt provides a vivid and detailed account of her life on and off the stage, offering readers a unique perspective on the history of theater in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
