Cecily Strong's New Memoir “This Will All Be Over Soon”
Cecily Strong is a household name for the many roles she inhabits on “Saturday Night Live." But it’s not all laughter and light for Strong. The sudden death of her beloved cousin from brain cancer last year and her own isolation during the pandemic caused her to reflect on her life and her personal struggles with depression and anxiety. She details this journey in her new memoir.
