Congratulations to Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling Recording GRAMMY® Award #nominees Dolly Parton and Barbra Streisand! ⁣ ⁣ Learn more about our nominees and listen to audiobook clips: https://lnkd.in/ecAZjKjn Congrats to PRH Audio producers Dan Zitt, Karen D. and Matie A.! ⁣ ⭐ BEHIND THE SEAMS written & read by Dolly Parton; with Holly George-Warren and Rebecca Seaver⁣ ⁣ Global superstar Dolly Parton shares, for the first time, the full story behind her lifelong passion for fashion, including how she developed her own distinctly Dolly style, which has defied convention and endeared her to fans around the world. The audiobook is an immersive listening experience featuring over 30 of Dolly’s beloved songs as well as archival interviews and performance clips. The audiobook features personal stories from Dolly herself with narration by Rebecca Seaver and Holly George-Warren, as well as contributions from many of Dolly’s lifelong fashion collaborators. Dolly Parton has 10 previous GRAMMY Awards and 54 nominations. ⁣ ⭐ MY NAME IS BARBRA written & read by Barbra Streisand ⁣ Ten years in the making, MY NAME IS BARBRA encapsulates much of living legend Barbra Streisand’s six-decade career as a singer, actor, and director, as well as her personal life. Barbra tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career, from growing up in Brooklyn to her first star-making appearances in New York nightclubs to her breakout performance in Funny Girl on stage and winning the Oscar for that performance on film. The audiobook is, like Barbra herself, frank, funny, opinionated, and charming. Barbra Streisand has won 8 previous GRAMMY Awards and 48 nominations.
