AUTHOR/NARRATOR
Growing up, Barbara Corcoran shared one floor in a three-family house in New Jersey with her parents and nine brothers and sisters. She had few luxuries, but she was blessed with a mother who taught her to have self-confidence. Barbara's mom didn't know much about business, but she understood how the world works, and how to make the most of what you've got. After failing at twenty-two other jobs, Barbara borrowed $1,000 from a boyfriend, quit her job as a diner waitress, and started a tiny real estate office in New York City. Today, with over $2 billion in revenues, The Corcoran Group in New York's premier real estate company, and Barbara is richer than her wildest dreams. Barbara, who wrote this book with the noticeably skilled help of career lifestyle writer, Bruce Littlefield, lives in New York City with her husband, son and four stepchildren.

New York Magazine
"Barbara Corcoran is the most quoted, most visible Manhattan real estate agent on the scene today."

Working Mother
"Part memoir, part rough guide to business and 100 percent in-your-face glee."
