The People’s Princess

20th Century Fox

Carrie Fisher was 19 when she made Star Wars. The child of Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, she was Hollywood royalty — which didn’t mean her childhood was easy. Her father famously left her mother and married her best friend, Elizabeth Taylor, when Carrie Fisher was just two years old.

But as Princess Leia, Fisher never left a moment of doubt that she was intergalactic royalty. And good with a blaster, too.

The Princess Diaries, Fisher’s memoir of working on Star Wars — including her perspective on her secret relationship with Harrison Ford — is essential reading for Star Wars fans.
