In the tradition of Stories I Only Tell My Friends, the best-selling book by ‘80s screen icon Rob Lowe, Sheila Kennedy’s No One’s Pet is a revealing, funny, scandalous, and also warm and wise recounting of excess and hardship. The fun of porn's early days is all here, from dating athlete Ron Darling, to tumultuous nights with Axl Rose, and heartthrob Scott Baio. Sheila appeared on the cover of Penthouse magazine four times, and was named the Penthouse Pet of the Year in 1983. As a sexual icon of the 1980s, Sheila Kennedy offers a unique perspective on this important decade in the sexual revolution.
Of her new book, Sheila Kennedy said, “I’m excited to be working with the Jerrick Media team on this project. I hope the book opens up a conversation for women of my generation, and future generations, who have encountered obstacles in life, in order to find their inner spirit, overcome, and prevail.”
The book marks Jerrick Media’s second publication, following the success of The Mind’s Eye: The Art of Omni, which celebrates in stunning detail the exceptional science fiction imagery of the Omni magazine era.
Co-author Glenn Kenny said, "Sheila is a born storyteller with a lot of fantastic, funny, and moving stories to tell, and I am privileged to know her and honored to have been able to help her get her stories on the page."
No One’s Pet is the first time Sheila extensively discusses her time as a Penthouse Pet, and her nearly ten year residence at Bob Guccione’s mansion, the largest residence in New York at the time.
