Author Holly George-Warren, Grammy nom and writer of Dolly Parton's 'Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones' talks music, writing and a college reunion at the "hippie house"

Visiting New York today to chat with author Holly George-Warren about 'Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones', the New York Times bestselling fashion autobiography by music icon Dolly Parton, written with Warren. The two time Grammy nominated writer and former book editor for Rolling Stone Magazine has written other biographies including "Janis: Her Life and Music' (2019); 'A Man Called Destruction: The Life and Music of Alex Chilton, from Box Tops to Big Star to Backdoor Man' (2014), describes her recent journey of writing and working alongside Dolly, focusing on the iconic country singer's humble beginnings in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, where her early fashion sense and unique wardrobe style began. We also catch up on two books she's working on - one about writer Jack Kerouac and the other about country singer Jerry Jeff Walker.  This self proclaimed "research nerd" with a true love of  music, also describes her special college reunion in Chapel Hill, NC over the summer, at a place she appropriately calls "The Hippie House".
