The Words That Shaped Me is a 2010 memoir by the journalist and television producer Aliza Davidovit, published by WritEffect Productions, whose cover carries a blurb from Larry King calling it a terrific book. Organized alphabetically like a dictionary, the book moves from A to Z through words that have defined her life, mixing etymology with candid, funny and touching stories about her interviews with famous people, blind dates, faith, marriage to a clergyman and divorce, politics and the many characters she has met along the way.
