Actress Samantha Futerman collaborating on memoir with long-lost twin sister

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Actress Samantha Futerman is collaborating on a book about her improbable discovery that she had an identical twin.

Futerman, whose credits include the TV series “The Big C” and the film “Memoirs of a Geisha,” has a deal with G.P Putnam’s Sons. She will work on the book with Anais Bordier, the adopted daughter of a French family whose friends had seen Futerman’s movies and swore that the actress and Bordier looked exactly alike.

Bordier learned she and Futerman, who grew up in New Jersey, were born in Korea on Nov. 19, 1987. She contacted Futerman earlier this year through Facebook and the women discovered in May they were twins.

Putnam announced Tuesday that the book is currently untitled and is scheduled to come out in the fall of 2014.
