In this poignant, hilarious, and deeply intimate call to arms, Hollywood s most
powerful woman, the mega-talented creator of "Grey s Anatomy" and "Scandal" and
executive producer of "How to Get Away with Murder" reveals how saying YES chang
ed her life and how it can change yours too.
She s the creator and producer of
some of the most groundbreaking and audacious shows on television today: "Grey
s Anatomy, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder." Her iconic characters Meredith
Grey, Cristina Yang, Olivia Pope, Annalise Keating live boldly and speak their
minds. So who would suspect that Shonda Rhimes, the mega talent who owns Thursda
y night television (#TGIT), is an introvert? That she hired a publicist so she c
ould "avoid" public appearances? That she hugged walls at splashy parties and su
ffered panic attacks before media interviews so severe she remembered nothing af
terward?
