Fawcett friend to publish diary

NEW YORK — One of Farrah Fawcett’s closest friends, Alana Stewart, is publishing a diary she kept as the actress battled cancer and then died last month.

Publisher William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins, says “My Journey With Farrah” will be released in August. Some of the proceeds will be donated to the Farrah Fawcett Foundation for cancer research.

Fawcett, the pinup icon and “Charlie’s Angels” star, died June 25 at age 62. Stewart, an actress and former wife of rock star Rod Stewart, has appeared in such films as “Swing Shift” and “Funny Lady.”
