Bright Light: Spiritual Lessons from a Life in Acting

by Dee Wallace

Overview

Like all of us, Dee Wallace came in as a bright shiny light, and she knew from the beginning that her soul quest was to keep that light shining and share it with others. Bright Light is an autobiographical tale of how the actor's craft became a spiritual journey for her, and how she applied those lessons to her life. It is also a story of Everyman: how we lose our light and steps we can take to reclaim it. For Dee Wallace has discovered, like her co-star E.T., that the journey home comes from following the heart's lead.

Editorial Reviews

"Most readers first memory of Dee Wallace is as the wonderful Mom in everyone's favorite alien movie, E.T.  This book, however, is a serious 'curve' in what Dee Wallace, with her acting, has come to represent.  In this spiritual autobiography, Dee Wallace actually 'draws' readers into her world, and soon the reader is hooked - as chapter after chapter becomes a self-help guide full of fun, entertainment, interesting remarks, and core truths that can help anyone to live a better, “brighter” life.  With her eloquent words, Dee Wallace shows how people can find the power that they have within themselves to come back from any situation.  An interesting read from an interesting and inspiring woman".  —Amy Lignor, The Feathered Quill
