Kitt toured the world with her mom and eventually went on to manage Eartha’s career and was with her when she died on Christmas Day in 2008.Kitt Shapiro tells the story of their close relationship in her new book "Eartha & Kitt: A Daughter's Love Story in Black and White.” The book feels more relevant now than ever as it illustrates Eartha’s groundbreaking positions on race, diversity, the anti-war movement and embracing LGBTQ people.Today Kitt Shapiro joins us to look back on her mom Eartha Kitt’s amazing life and adventures, singing songs in Tagalog and Japanese, and her love for gardening and eating all her vegetables.FEATURED BOOK: 📘 Kitt Shapiro - Eartha & Kitt: A Daughter's Love Story in Black and Whitehttps://amzn.to/3swgXWfEpisode #3013
