As a successful actress, devoted mother and committed spokeswoman for children, Mia Farrow has absolutely done it all. Following her young life in 1940's Hollywood as the daughter of actress Maureen O'Sullivan and writer/director John Farrow, she went on to earn her own stellar list of credentials, acting in more than two dozen movies including such classics as Rosemary's Baby, The Great Gatsby, and Hannah and Her Sisters, along with her breakthrough television appearance in Peyton Place. Overcoming a childhood battle with polio and a much-publicized, tumultuous personal life, Farrow has emerged victorious and remains one of Hollywood's most extraordinary women.

As the mother of fourteen children - ten of whom are adopted, Mia Farrow has now devoted her life to humanitarian efforts and the care of a truly remarkable family. With the goal of helping those who are less fortunate, she brings an unending source of courage, hope and spiritual strength to her role as mother and activist. Farrow reflected on her ever-evolving life journey in the sincere and candid bestseller, What Falls Away. In what Newsweek calls "a simply elegant memoir," she presents a revealing and candid account of her personal struggles, her numerous professional successes, and her passionate and sincere commitment to the children of the world.
