\t\t\t\t\tBarbra Streisand Wanted Her Memoir to Be Shorter \u2014 But She\u2019s Grateful It Helped Bring Back Her\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tStreisand\u2019s audiobook is also nominated in the autobiography\/memoir category, where it is squaring off against a work by another certified music legend, Elton John<\/a>. Unlike Streisand, John didn\u2019t narrate his own memoir (Farewell Yellow Brick Road<\/em>). It was instead narrated by Richard Armitage, Vikas Adam, Daniel Henning, Ray Porter, Jesse Einstein, Fred Berman, Edoardo Ballerini, Mark Boyett, Kevin T. Collins, Peter Ganim, Mike Cooper, John Lee and Oliver Wyman.<\/p>\n

\n\tJohn became an EGOT last year. Streisand is not an official EGOT because she has yet to win a Tony in competition (though she did receive a special Tony Award as star of the decade in 1970). Despite that one lapse, Streisand has one of the most impressive awards resumes <\/a>of any performer. <\/p>\n

\n\tStreisand\u2019s audiobook, published by Penguin Random House Audio, is also a current Grammy nominee for best audio book, narration and storytelling recording. The award is expected to go to Jimmy Carter\u2019s Last Sundays in Plains: A Centennial Celebration<\/em>. The former president died at age 100 on Dec. 29, near the end of the Grammy voting period. The Grammys will be presented on Feb. 2.<\/p>\n

\n\tCommon<\/a> is nominated at the Audie Awards in the business\/personal development category for And Then We Rise<\/em>, which he both wrote and narrated.<\/p>\n

\n\tWillow Smith<\/a> is nominated in the fantasy category for Black Shield Maiden<\/em>, which she co-wrote (with Jess Hendel) and narrated.<\/p>\n

\n\tRiley Keough<\/a> is nominated for multi-voiced performance for From Here to the Great Unknown<\/em>, which she cowrote with her late mother Lisa Marie Presley<\/a> and co-narrated with Oscar winner Julia Roberts.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Audie Awards, now in their 30th year, are presented by Audio Publishers Association. \u201cAs we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Audie Awards, we\u2019re reflecting on three decades of honoring the incredible talent and innovation within the audiobook industry,\u201d Sean McManus, the association\u2019s president, said in a statement. \u201cThis year\u2019s finalists represent the very best in storytelling, and we couldn\u2019t be more excited to celebrate their achievements.\u201d<\/p>\n
