GRACE OF MY HEART

Joel Millner created Denise Waverly. He gave her a tiny office with an upright piano and the chance to write the kind of chart-topping, million-selling songs that make stars of the artists who sing them and millionaires of the managers who guide their careers. But it wasn't enough being the heart behind the hits. Denise wanted to hear her own voice signing her own music and her own words. And at a time when the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Supremes and the Stones ruled the charts, the female singer/songwriter would remain a concept just slightly ahead of its time. For Denise Waverly, it was a turbulent decade. It was a time of ... becoming ... mother, wife, ex-wife, friend, lover, widow. It was a time of discovery ... searching for herself and finding her own voice.
