In conversation with Marty Moss-Coane, host of WHYY's Radio Times
The winner of two Academy Awards and three Primetime Emmy Awards, screen icon Sally Field is acclaimed for roles including a flying nun, a Depression-era Texas widow, a multiple-personality disorder sufferer, a union organizer, a soap queen, Spider-Man’s aunt, Forrest Gump’s mom, Mary Todd Lincoln, and a runaway bride hitchhiker. She is also a longtime advocate for human rights, has served since 2002 on the board of directors of the international women’s NGO Vital Voices, was honored by President Obama with the National Medal of Arts, and is an inductee into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In Pieces is a memoir of Field’s lonely but instructive childhood, her craft, and her most important roles: as a daughter, mother, and grandmother.
She is just amazing and loved so dearly for the person that she is so wonderful 👏 💗
Her book is outstanding.
Thank you Sally for being so brave. Better late than never, I listened to the audiobook. To have her story read to you by her is even more amazing as she "acts out" her life in her voice. It's a great book. Well written and intimate. I'm far from an actor but our lives have been so similar. including my mom died a few weeks after my 65th bday.
I absolutely have so much respect for sally for speaking what happened to her as a child she's hopefully helped other survivors of abuse
It took me close to 41 years of grieving over the loss of my mom ive written so much poetry about the loss of Margaret my mom and my dad
Pse go read the account of Lazarus... That account of the resurrection gives me such faith & hope that I'll see my parents again... Notice Jesus called him Out of the grave onto the earth... not down from heaven... He'd been dead 4 days...
You Will see them again... Not for nothing they influenced your life as they did...
Big hug & Godspeed...
SALLY FIELD.......💜 BEAUTIFUL Person...BEAUTIFUL Soul....There are some of us who can totally relate to what you have shared with your book also with this interview.........💖 Many Thanks
Excellent interview...Marty brought out the best in her...probing insight and questions...excellent job!...What wisdom...Thank you, Sal....
She brought her life, her remembrances, her articulations, and her fights into art....!!
Amazing woman-- talent, strength, integrity, intelligence, personality, kindness and oh yeah-- beauty. A person who has lived and learned on a level way, way above the understanding of common, judgemental intellectually-bereft twits who make stupid comments.
Could not love her more xxx
Thank you Sally!
How she only has 2 Oscars is beyond me.
She described me
Will name it and tame it be enough for most people? The pain is one side, the unmanageable rage is the other. Disassociated behavior is just one response. Sally Field was host to a Barbara Stanwyck biography. Stanwyck obviously was sexually molested at an early age. By 15, she had been accepted into the Ziegfield Follies. Beautiful young girls connected to rich old men. Barbara didn't have Dr. Siegel to help out. Sally has a way to cope, as of a few tens of years ago.
I think Sally Field is a great woman. She is someone I would like to be like, I also think her movies were great she'she was my idol when I was growing up in the 60s Glena Ann crossen like I said she was great, love you Sally hope I'm your friend
😊
Her sons must have caught the brunt of her rage because of Jock.
you are talking in circles. Don't get it. The only interview that's really bad!
I can't even imagine all this trauma that Sally is talking about. Is it possible that she was in pieces because of not having a normal life for being an actress? Her story doesn't make any sense to me. Abused kids talk to someone, why couldn't she talk to someone earlier? And her mother would have known if something was not right in her marriage and would have divorced that man. Being a beautiful woman she could have easily found a better man?
Wow. No. You could not be more wrong, or more judgemental.
She’s Barking.
see above
There is nothing in this interview to suggest that, in the least
