At 14, Nora Kuzma (Traci Lords) ran away from home and ended up on the dirty streets of Hollywood. She fell in with a fast crowd, and her dreams of modeling soon landed her a spectacular centrefold in Penthouse Magazine, where at 15 she became internationally known as TRACI LORDS.

From there, she appeared in numerous adult films and magazines, denying her past and battling a deep addiction to cocaine and men. Three years later, she got out. This memoir is a tale of loss, redemption, and ultimate survival as Traci Elizabeth Lords takes you into her secretive past, faces her demons, and shares her extraordinary journey of personal growth.
