Unscripted

By: Cheryl Hines

Narrated by: Cheryl Hines

The highly anticipated memoir by the Emmy-nominated actress, director, and comedian Cheryl Hines.

Best known for her twenty-four-year portrayal of Cheryl on HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm, Cheryl’s story begins in small-town Florida and unfolds across the glittering stages of Hollywood—and right into the heart of the Kennedy family and a presidential campaign.

With her signature wit, Cheryl shares hilarious and heartwarming stories from her career in comedy, acting alongside legends like Robin Williams and Larry David and surviving in Hollywood’s unpredictable landscape. From bartending in LA while hustling for auditions to working with comedy icons at The Groundlings, Cheryl provides a candid look at her rise from modest beginnings to earning a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

But Cheryl’s story goes far beyond the spotlight. In her memoir, she delves into her personal life, revealing the challenges and joys of a blended family with her husband, activist lawyer and 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. She also opens up about her lifelong passion for advocacy, including her dedication to United Cerebral Palsy, inspired by her nephew Michael.

With humor, wisdom, and unflinching honesty, Cheryl navigates the highs and lows of fame, family, and an unexpected foray into politics—complete with twists no one saw coming. Whether reflecting on her role in Curb, her time on Suburgatory, or her whirlwind introduction to the Kennedy legacy, Cheryl’s memoir is a testament to resilience, love, and finding humor in even the most chaotic moments.

Unscripted is an inspiring, laugh-out-loud, and deeply moving memoir that showcases Cheryl’s ability to find grace and humor in every chapter of her life.

Full of humility & honestly

Cheryl Hines wrote a beautiful memior about her life. I enjoyed listening to the ups and downs in her life and how she humbly and bravely weathered life's storms. As I have learned in my life, happiness is a choice.

Loved the book especially that it was narrated by Cheryl!

This was such an easy book to listen to. Cheryl did such a good job on narration and i really enjoyed the book.

Excellent

What a wonderful book. I really enjoyed learning more about Cheryl Hines’ background and getting a glimpse into some of the inner workings of the Kennedy family. What stayed with me most, though, is her remarkable grace under fire. She carries herself with such dignity and strength. Much respect.

Definitely worth the listen

The book gets more interesting as it goes, though the first 6-7 chapters were boring. It got more interesting after that but she left out huge parts of her story. I was pleasantly surprised with the narration, Ms. Hines did a nice job with it.

Delightful

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I found myself deeply involved in the story. I might have shed a tear or two, laughed at the exotic animal anecdotes, and really felt optimistic at the end. Overall, a great time.
