Barbra Streisand has signed a deal to publish her first memoir, which will hit shelves this autumn.

My Name Is Barbra will be released worldwide on 7th November.

The book will see the actress/singer/director tell her own story, from growing up in Brooklyn to her first star-making appearances in New York nightclubs to her breakout performance in Funny Girl (musical and film) and the long string of successes in every medium in the years that followed.
