Sunset Valley was your typical midwestern town, complete with a nuclear power plant, sports stadium, army base, and a beach. To Debbie, it was home and lauching pad, all in one.
Her mom kept their ramshackle house free of pests and boys (not an easy task on boths counts). Debbie was a lovely girl, or as Shirley Manson (lead singer of the band Garbage) would describe her 30 years later: The most beautiful woman in any room, in any city, on any planet.
But, that's a story that everyone knows and knows quite well. This tale chronicles the early years of Debbie Harry--before the band, CBGBs, the Sex Pistols, Ramones, Chris Stien, Andy Warhol, and unparalled success as a pop icon. This is a Debbie that few know and even fewer remember--a Debbie with aspiration, who cannot resist swiping stuff from neighbor's houses. A bottle blonde who is three steps ahead of the boys and one ahead of the law. Before MTV Debbie, there was Dreaming Debbie.
