## Resource

Gina Gershon is here to discuss her new memoir, AlphaPussy: How I Survived the Valley and Learned to Love My Boobs , creating the perfect breakfast cereal, how this new book came to fruition, similarities shared between cats and men, why some younger artists see a toughness in her they feel they can’t harness themselves, writing a reflective book about being an independent, somewhat unparented child while caring for and then grieving for her mother, boxing with Bob Dylan and their enduring friendship, the gratitude she receives from fans inspired by her strong characters in Bound and Showgirls and rekindling her conflicted relationship with the latter in its thirtieth anniversary year, what’s next for her, and much more.
