一位母親
DeGeneres is the author of two books: "Love, Ellen: A Mother Daughter Journey" and "Just a Mom". In "Love, Ellen: A Mother Daughter Journey", Betty describes her reaction to her daughter coming out as a lesbian, and her path from passive acceptance to becoming a passionate advocate for LGBT rights. She also describes the media scrutiny she received after Ellen came out. Her second book, "Just a Mom", continues these themes. She also wrote a column for the (now defunct) website PlanetOut called "Ask Betty."
