David Ritz appears in the following:
Etta James: The Singer Who Raged to Survive
Wednesday, January 25, 2012
R&B singer Etta James passed away last week at the age of 73. While she's best remembered for her heartwrenching ballads like “At Last” and “I’d Rather Go Blind,” the diva's life also contained struggles with addiction and abuse. Joining us to remember the late singer is writer David Ritz, who co-wrote her 1995 autobiography, "Rage to Survive: The Etta James Story." And, Etta's longtime guitarist, Bobby Murray, joins us from Detroit to talk about working with the rhythm and blues legend toward the end of her career.
