Patricia Arquette, Oscar-winning actress from ‘Boyhood,’ working on memoir

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Academy Award winner Patricia Arquette has lot more to say off screen than her Oscar acceptance speech.

The actress cited in February for her performance in “Boyhood” has a deal with Random House for a memoir about her “unconventional family,” single parenthood and life in Hollywood, the publisher announced Wednesday. The book is currently untitled and a release date has not been set.

Arquette, who turns 46 next week, is the granddaughter of character actor and “Hollywood Squares” celebrity Cliff Arquette (aka “Charlie Weaver”) and the daughter of actor Lewis Arquette. She has been married twice, including to fellow actor Nicholas Cage, and has two children. Her other films include “True Romance” and “Bringing Out the Dead.”
