Whitney Port to Publish Advice Book

Posted on April 22, 2010

HarperCollins' It Books imprint is going to publish a book by The City and The Hills star Whitney Port. The book will be called True Whit. Whitney Port will share personal stories and offer advice. Some of the tips will include how to get rid of puffy under-eye bags, perfecting your hostess skills, what to wear on a first date, and how to turn a tiny apartment into a palace. The book will also includes photos and recipes from Whitney Port's mom.

Whitney says in the announcement, "Being a twenty-something can be a difficult phase. There are so many questions, and I wanted to write about my experiences for anyone who needs help navigating through life. It's a really fun and fresh how-to-guide where I can share anecdotes that I've learned from both work and my personal life."

The deal was negotiated by Lisa Sharkey, Senior Vice President and Director of Creative Development at HarperCollins, Matthew Elblonk of DeFiore and Company, and Max Stubblefield of United Talent Agency. True Whit is scheduled to be published on February 1, 2011 and will be edited by Amy Bendell and Jen Schulkind.

Update: The cover art for the book has been released. Whitney is wearing a red dress on the cover.
