``I have never apologized for my sexuality. I love men; I love the way they smell. I love the way they taste, their texture, the way they're built. I'm a big fan of sex.'' This little prose pheromone from Henner's introduction, not to mention the bedroom- eyes double entendre of the title, says it all. If we're Arsenio, we pump our arms and say, ``Woo, woo.'' If we're Leno, we mug in mock horror at such brazenness on network TV. If we're Letterman, we grin and move on to stupid pet tricks. Aided by Jerome (coauthor of Roger Corman's How I Made a Hundred Movies in Hollywood and Never Lost a Dime, not reviewed), Henner, who starred as Elaine Nardo in ``Taxi'' and currently appears in ``Evening Shade,'' presents herself as a Horatio Alger with legs (raising interesting questions, which Henner would no doubt gladly answer, about pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps). The beautiful thing about this book is the harmonic convergence between form and content that will occur when it comes time for Henner to plug it on Leno. -- Copyright ©1994, Kirkus Associates, LP.

Henner, who played Elaine Nardo in the Emmy-winning TV show Taxi and costarred with Burt Reynolds in Evening Shade, here "tells it all" with coauthor Jerome. Raised in Chicago by parents who encouraged their children's self-expression, Henner launched her career in the national touring company of Grease. Moving from stage to film to TV, she led just as eclectic a private life. Uninhibited, she tells of her many relationships, including her short-lived marriage to actor Frederic Forrest. Devastated by her parents' premature deaths and a period where she couldn't find work, Henner entered therapy and went "macrobiotic," eating no dairy foods and exercising vigorously. Today, in her 40s, she is a happily married mother and looks "the best I ever looked." An upbeat story of a dynamic woman who keeps on moving no matter what. Photos not seen by PW.
