LIV TYLER TO PEN FOREWORD TO GRANDMOTHER'S MANNERS BOOK
Monday, May 07, 2012 - Actress Liv Tyler is set to give her grandmother's new manners book a big
boost by penning the novel's foreword.
The Armageddon star and daughter of rocker Steven Tyler was raised by her model mum Bebe Buell and etiquette coach grandmother Dorothea Johnson.
And now Tyler is to thank her beloved relative for her years of devotion by giving Johnson a career lift and writing a short intro to her sixth tome, Modern Manners.
Tyler tells Harper's Bazaar, "My grandmother is an incredible teacher. In the world, she's been a businesswoman, but for me she's always been nurturing."
The actress will share some of her best-learned tips and words of wisdom, admitting she still puts into practice most of Johnson's advice for always looking and acting like a polished woman.
The mum of seven-year-old son Milo adds, "They taught me to just take that extra bit of time. There's nothing worse than having to get up at seven every morning, get Milo dressed, me dressed, walk the dog, make breakfast, get him to school by 8.30, and then have all the paparazzi jumping up from behind a bush when you have no make-up on."
