The book trailer is up!
A trailer for a book? That's right: I have seen the future of publishing and it looks a lot like my parents. Jessica Dimmock and Mark Jackson took time away from making real movies to film a promotional video for the book based on this here blog, My Mom, Style Icon (Chronicle Books). After several back-and-forths with agents, and one very heated negotiation involving the promise of lox and bagels, we also got my parents, Monroe and Marilyn, to join in the filmmaking fun. Above is the official trailer. Below is the extended director's cut. Please forgive my disgusting fingernails. They were not ready for their close-up, nor will they ever be.

Your parents are so adorable!
I love that your dad says he didn't think your mom was a style 'icon' he thought she was hot. Too funny!
Can't wait for the book to come out!
thanks! My mom is style a knockout today. i'm very proud of them.
I can't wait for the book!!!
I got teary eyed watching the trailer. Perhaps because I rarely pause to think about my mother's younger years.
I really wish we had more pictures of my mom when she was young. She only has one photo of her and that's primarily because she grew up in a small Mexican town where photos where unheard of.
