Her autobiography, "Mommie Dearest," published in 1978, tells a shocking account of mistreatment; she takes credit for making child abuse a national topic. In 1981 she had a stroke that she claimed was the result of childhood beatings. She recovered with five years of rehab. Her novel "Black Widow" came out and in 1988, then "Survivor." Her fourth book, "No Safe Place, The Legacy of Family Violence" was published September 1994.
