Lorna Luft, one of Judy Garland's talented daughters, celebrates her mother's incredible contributions to the world of entertainment in this popular episode. Lorna, an accomplished performer in her own right, has won acclaim on stage, film and TV. Plus she’s also a best-selling author, recording artist and Emmy-nominated producer. Her book, "Me and My Shadows: Living with the Legacy of Judy Garland," was optioned by ABC-TV and turned into a riveting miniseries starring Judy Davis. Lorna served as co-executive producer on that project, which won 5 Emmy Awards. Another of Lorna’s impressive accomplishments is a multi-media production, "Songs My Mother Taught Me," a spectacular concert combining one of the world’s most familiar songbooks with her personal memories of her famous mother. A CD based on this event was released on First Night Records. Film critics James Colt Harrison and Diana Saenger join Lorna in paying tribute to Judy Garland.
