“Not
long before her fiftieth birthday, Mackenzie Phillips walked into Los
Angeles International Airport. She was on her way to a reunion of One
Day at a Time, the hugely popular 70s sitcom on which she once starred
as the loveable rebel Julie Cooper. Within minutes, Mackenzie was in
handcuffs, arrested for possession of cocaine and heroin.
Born
into rock and roll royalty, Mackenzie grew up in an all-access kingdom
of hippy freedom and heroin cool. It was a kingdom over which her
father, the legendary John Phillips of The Mamas & the Papas,
presided, often in absentia, a spellbinding, visionary phantom.
When
Mackenzie was a teenager, Hollywood and the world took notice of the
charming, talented, precocious child actor after her star-making turn in
American Graffiti. As a young woman she joined the nonstop party in
the hedonistic pleasure dome her father created for himself and his
fellow revelers, and a rapt TV audience watched as Julie Cooper wasted
away before their eyes. By the time Mackenzie discovered how deep and
dark her father's trip was going, it was too late. And as an adult, she
has paid dearly for a lifetime of excess, working tirelessly to
reconcile a wonderful, terrible past in which she succumbed to the
power of addiction and the pull of her magnetic father.
As
her astounding, outrageous, and often tender life story unfolds,
Phillips overcomes seemingly impossible obstacles again and again and
journeys toward redemption and peace. By exposing the shadows and
secrets of the past to the light of day, the star who turned up High on
Arrival has finally come back down to earth -- to stay.
