This Time Together: Laughter and Reflection is Carol Burnett's memoir published by Harmony Books in April 2010, collecting the anecdotes, friendships, and personal stories she gathered across a legendary career in television and entertainment. Organized as a series of short, self-contained episodes — from her early days stretching pennies in New York to her eleven-year run on The Carol Burnett Show, which won twenty-five Emmys — the book is grounded in the same Q&A format Burnett brought to her live touring show, Laughter and Reflection: A Conversation with Carol. Endorsed warmly by collaborators including Julie Andrews and Tony Bennett, it is reviewed here based on its content and published reception, not hands-on use.
