Betty White turns 99 on Sunday, January 17th. Wow! This television legend and darling of the silver screen captivates our attention and brings smiles to our faces. This year, she will be celebrating her birthday in quarantine, but she’s still going to be busy working on the rerelease of her 1970’s syndicated television show produced by her late husband, Allen Ludden, The Pet Set. Featuring her love of animals, celebrities such as Mary Tyler Moore, James Stewart, Burt Reynolds, Doris Day, and Carol Burnett among others will make a special appearance. Based on her long, successful career, we are ready for 90 more years with Betty White. 
Back when Betty turned 90, author, Andrew E. Stoner, wrote a book about her first 90 years. Betty White: The First 90 Years is a book you don’t want to pass up because this book takes a fan-based look at one of America’s most loved and most enduring stars – and if the first nine decades of her life are any indication – there’s a lot of fun still to come.
Look inside and roam Betty’s roles from her snarky, unforgettable appearances as Sue Ann Nivens on the ground-breaking Mary Tyler Moore Show to her naïve air-headed Rose Nylund, one fourth of the mega-hit sitcom, The Golden Girls.
A whole new generation of fans know Betty only from her appearances on Saturday Night Live, Boston Legal, Hot in Cleveland, or her scene-stealing ways on the big screen including Lake Placid and The Proposal. Betty’s career spans from the very start of television to the phenomena now known as social media.
Mixed in with the significant accomplishments of this TV pioneer, Betty White: The First 90 Years, is full of a lot of laughs and fun memories from her literally thousands of hours of TV appearances. Whether it’s Sue Ann Nivens’ “how to get the man” advice, to one of Rose Nylund’s St. Olaf stories, you’ll enjoy spending time with the last of America’s truly Golden Girls!
