Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey bonded from their first days filming The Office, even though their characters Pam Beesly and Angela Martin shared little common ground at Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch. Fischer chronicles how two actors built a lasting friendship over nine seasons of television production. She reveals what happened during the show's early struggles to find an audience and describes their experience walking red carpets together. The book includes previously unseen photographs from their time on set and exclusive stories about filming major episodes. Fischer explores how their lives changed when both women became mothers while still working on the series. Drawing from the same conversational approach they use on their Office Ladies podcast, Fischer presents an insider's perspective on one of television's most beloved workplace comedies and the genuine friendship that grew from it.
