In her dream role, Gene Roddenberry beamed her aboard the Starship Enterprise as Yeoman Janice Rand for the original Star Trek series. But a terrifying sexual assault on the studio lot and her lifelong feelings of emptiness and isolation would soon combine to turn her starry dream into a nightmare.
"I had a hole in my gut with the wind blowing through. I was in pain. I craved validation. And I looked for solace in alcohol, drugs and sex."
Whitney attributes this event with triggering the most lengthy and severe bout of her decades-long addiction to drugs, alcohol and sex. Clean, sober and a born again messianic Jew, Whitney recalls with frankness, warmth and humor her life-long battle to be a "good girl," and her hunger for a sense of belonging and acceptance.
