Candice Bergen to write 2nd memoir, out in 2012

[October 01, 2010]  NEW YORK (AP) -- Candice Bergen will pen a second memoir as a follow-up to her 1984 book "Knock Wood."

Simon & Schuster Executive Vice President and Publisher Jonathan Karp said Thursday that Bergen's new memoir will be published in 2012. The currently untitled book will cover Bergen's time on the acclaimed TV show "Murphy Brown," as well as the death of her husband, director Louis Malle.
