Publisher's Summary

It-girl Betty White delivers a hilarious, slyly profound take on love, life, celebrity, and everything in between.

Drawing from a lifetime of lessons learned, seven-time Emmy winner Betty White's wit and wisdom take center stage as she tackles topics like friendship, romantic love, aging, television, fans, love for animals, and the brave new world of celebrity. If You Ask Me mixes her thoughtful observations with humorous stories from a seven- decade career in Hollywood. Longtime fans and new fans alike will relish Betty's candid take on everything from her rumored crush on Robert Redford (true) to her beauty regimen ("I have no idea what color my hair is and I never intend to find out") to the Facebook campaign that helped persuade her to host Saturday Night Live despite her having declined the hosting job three times already.

Featuring all-new material, with a focus on the past 15 years of her life, If You Ask Me is funny, sweet, and to the point - just like Betty White.

What the critics say

Listening to Betty

This was like sitting with Ms Betty White Ludden on my livingroom couch, her giving answers, me not needing to ask. Like a friend. RIP Betty.

Be grateful

Betty reminds us to be grateful for what we have and appreciative of everything (criticism included). A wonderful reminder that you can live until 89 without getting jaded.

What a great storyteller.

Her story was entertaining and fun. She was a great lady with a lot of history. She’s missed.

Betty White

The narrator was marvelous. The last chapter heartbreakingly beautiful. I bet Allan was waiting for you.... and all of your pets over the years.

A pure joy.

loved listening to Betty's life in her voice. She was a magical lady. Deeply saddened by her passing but this book brought me comfort knowing she is busy meeting many wonderful people. A true icon. ❤
