  Joan of Arc was born around January 6, 1412, in the small village of Domrémy, located in northeastern France. She came from a modest family of farmers, with her father, Jacques d’Arc, being a well-respected member of the community. Her mother, Isabelle Romée, was known for her devout religious beliefs, which would greatly influence Joan's early life. Joan was one of five children, and although she lived in relative poverty, her family provided her with a stable and loving environment. 
  Growing up in Domrémy, Joan was surrounded by the rural landscape of Lorraine, a region that was politically unstable at the time. The Hundred Years’ War, which pitted France against England, had caused widespread hardship for many French families. Domrémy, being on the border of French and Burgundian territories, was caught in the middle of this conflict. Joan witnessed firsthand the suffering of the French people, including raids and the destruction of villages, which left a lasting impact on her. 
  Joan was a deeply religious child, often spending time in the local church. It is said that she learned about the lives of saints and felt a special connection to them. Her strong faith became a central part of her identity. By the age of 13, Joan began to experience mystical visions. These visions, which she later described as coming from saints such as Saint Michael, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret, were significant in shaping her future. The voices instructed her to help the French crown, specifically to assist Charles VII, the Dauphin, in reclaiming his throne and driving out the English forces from France. Joan took these visions seriously, believing they were divine instructions, and they set her on a path that would change the course of history.

  Kara DioGuardi is an award-winning hitmaker, a savvy record executive, and a successful music publisher whose songs have been recorded by such superstars as Pink, Carrie Underwood, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Gwen Stefani, Santana, Steven Tyler, Céline Dion, and so many others. She was also the feisty fourth judge on American Idol. But success wouldn’t have happened for this songwriter, artist, and producer without the dark times of defeat. Filled with the grace, raw honesty, and haunting emotion of her hit songs, A Helluva High Note is the soundtrack to Kara’s life—an intimate anthem about living, creating, loving, stumbling, picking herself up again, and ultimately succeeding. It is a moving chronicle of the experiences that have inspired her songs and given her the resilience and perspective to become the confidant, accomplished, adventurous warrior she is today. 
  Kara not only writes about what it was like to collaborate with some of our favorite performing artists, she also opens up about everything from her struggles with debilitating stage fright and an equally paralyzing eating disorder, to the most devastating yet profoundly life-altering experience—caring for her mother during her fatal battle with cancer. And, of course, she shares behind-the-scenes stories from her years on American Idol and the real truth about her departure from the show.  
   A Helluva High Note is filled with memorable and inspirational tales from the heart and trenches of life, business, and the world of entertainment. Passionate, wise, funny, and down-to-earth, it proves that finding, cultivating, and following your own true voice really is possible.
