Actor Jennifer Grey became a household name for her role as Baby in the now-classic film "Dirty Dancing." But her fame did not stop the widespread criticism of her appearance, leading to a plastic surgery that changed the course of Grey's career forever. Grey discusses this, her childhood as the daughter of Broadway legend Joel Grey, her rise to fame, and her attempts to redefine herself in her new memoir, Out of the Corner, which is available on May 3. She joins us to talk about her book.
