Reviews
"Mother Dolores Hart is a remarkable woman with a remarkable story-one of love, devotion and faith." -- Maria Shriver , bestselling author of Just Who Will You Be? " The Ear of the Heart , like Dolores Hart herself, is Hollywood on the surface but tough and deeply spiritual on the inside." -- Norman Latov, MD , director of the Peripheral Neuropathy Clinical and Research Center at Weill Cornell Medical College, New York "Mother Dolores Hart's life story is one of the most amazing I've ever read." -- Dan Goggin , creator of the Nunsense musicals "The story of Dolores Hart teaches us to seek God regardless of where we are-in a summer storm, in prayer or even in front of a camera." -- Raymond Arroyo , New York Times bestselling author, host of The World Over Live , and EWTN news director "Read now for some lively insights from the girl who kissed Elvis in the movies and became the Mother Prioress who gets the last laugh in real life." -- Paula Prentiss , actress "This is a courageous adventure. It is a thriller." -- Richard Benjamin , actor and director " The Ear of the Heart reminds us that God speaks most loudly when he whispers into our souls." -- Chris Davis , bird behavior specialist "Read this fascinating story to learn how what seems like 'running away', is in reality 'running to' Love." -- Maria Cooper Janis , daughter of Gary Cooper "This powerfully honest book is one of the most unusual and inspirational I have ever read. . . . This intelligent page turner by Mother Dolores makes you laugh, makes you cry and most of all, makes you think." -- Tab Hunter , actor "From giving Elvis Presley his first screen kiss to finding the consolation of faith, Mother Dolores's story is poignant and deeply moving. They ought to make a movie of it!" -- Pia Lindström , television journalist, daughter of Ingrid Bergman " The Ear of the Heart is a story of courage, sacrifice, dedication, and fulfillment. With grace and good humor in a voice as clear as the mountain spring, Mother Dolores Hart illuminates her lifelong quest for a state of tranquility and the joy of living in the presence of God." -- James Drury , actor in The Virginian "Mother Dolores is an extraordinary woman and her journey from Hollywood movie star to Benedictine nun will touch the hearts of people all over the world." -- Jack Wohl and Dan Angel , film producers
Synopsis
"Listen and attend with the ear of your heart." - Saint Benedict. Dolores Hart stunned Hollywood in 1963, when after ten highly successful feature films, she chose to enter a contemplative monastery. Now, fifty years later, Mother Dolores gives this fascinating account of her life, with co-author and life-long friend, Richard DeNeut. Dolores was a bright and beautiful college student when she made her film debut with Elvis Presley in Paramount's 1957 Loving You . She acted in nine more movies with other big stars such as Montgomery Clift, Anthony Quinn and Myrna Loy. She also gave a Tony-nominated performance in the Broadway play The Pleasure of His Company and appeared in television shows, including The Virginian and Playhouse 90 . An important chapter in her life occurred while playing Saint Clare in the movie Francis of Assisi , which was filmed on location in Italy. Born Dolores Hicks to a complicated and colorful Chicago family, Mother Dolores has travelled a charmed yet challenging road in her journey toward God, serenity and, yes, love. She entered the Abbey of Regina Laudis in Bethlehem, Connecticut, at the peak of her career, not in order to leave the glamorous world of acting she had dreamed of since childhood, but in order to answer a mysterious call she heard with the "ear of the heart". While contracted for another film and engaged to be married, she abandoned everything to become a bride of Christ., "Listen and attend with the ear of your heart." - Saint Benedict.

    Quality was as stated. It was in "like new" condition. I had contact w/ the seller before the purchase and was very attentive and shipping was quick. I would recommend this seller and buy from them again. I bought this copy because of the seller's response. Another one was not as accommodating.
