According to Wikipedia In 1986 she wrote an autobiography, California Dreamin’: The True Story of the Mamas and the Papas, released just weeks after her former husband John Phillips’ autobiography Papa John. In it, Phillips describes such events as the first meeting between her and fellow Mama, Cass Elliot, winning 17 straight shoots at a crap table in the Bahamas when the band was broke and could not afford the air fare back to the United States, and how her writing credit on “California Dreamin'”, which still nets her royalties, was “the best wake-up call” she ever had (she was asleep in a New York hotel room when her then husband John Phillips woke her up in order to help him finish a new song he was writing).
ps she was married to Dennis Hopper for eight days.
