Rating:  Summary: Getting to Know You Review: Reading "In the Wings" is an exciting discovery. This is not your run-of-the-mill Hollywood celebrity puff piece, although the cares and joys of the celebrity life are all there. Rather, Bermuda-born Diana Douglas Darrid chronicles the life of a working actress who was married to a superstar, Kirk Douglas, and give birth to another, Michael Douglas. After her divorce from Kirk, she was a single mother of two boys, Michael and Joel, whom she raised alone for some years while continuing her career in film, theater and television. This is a real page-turner, an honest and candid look into the life of a marvelous woman, the kind of person you would wish to have as a friend.
