Ceil Cleveland and Larry McMurtry grew up as friends in the little Texas town of Archer City, fictionalized by McMurtry in The Last Picture Show, which later became a film by Peter Bogdanovich. Among the locals, Cleveland has long been assumed to be the principal model for the novel's iconic character, Jacy Farrow--played in the movie by Cybill Shepherd. In this memoir, Cleveland recalls a girl's life in small-town Texas.
Ceil Cleveland, a fifth-generation Texan, daughter of pioneer ranchers and teachers, has taught at several universities, and currently serves as Vice President for University Affairs of the State University of New York at Stony Brook. She lives on the North Shore of Long Island with her husband.
