Some may know her as hot, gutsy, gun-totin' Foxy Brown, Friday Foster, Coffy,
and Jackie Brown. Others may know her from her role as Kit Porter on The L
Word. But that only defines one part of the legend that is Pam Grier.

Foxy is Pam's testimony of her life, past and present. In it, she reveals her
relationships with Richard Pryor, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Freddie Prinze Sr.,
among others. She unveils her experiences as a backup singer and a
blaxploitation star. In particularly candid and shocking chapters, she shares-
for the first time-her view of those films and the persecution that blacks,
especially women, needed to endure to make a name for themselves . . .
including how it felt to be labeled one of the most beautiful women alive, yet
not be permitted to try on clothes in a department store because of the color
of her skin. And in words sure to inspire many, she tells the story of her
ongoing battle with cancer.

From her disappointments to her triumphs, nothing is held back. With FOXY, Pam
wishes to impart life lessons to her readers-and hopes to touch their hearts.
