I'm Glad My Mom Died is a 2022 memoir by American writer, director and former actress Jennette McCurdy based on her one-woman show of the same name.

[2] McCurdy had previously written pieces in publications such as The Wall Street Journal and began writing personal essays shortly after.

Rather than write a book, McCurdy created a one-woman show titled I'm Glad My Mom Died which she performed in Los Angeles and New York City.

[6]In the memoir, McCurdy discusses her childhood as a successful child actress, her brief foray into a career in country music, and the troubled and controlling relationship she had with her mother, Debra, who died from cancer in 2013.

[7][8] She describes a strained relationship with a producer at Nickelodeon she referred to only as "The Creator", whom BuzzFeed News and other sources speculated to be Dan Schneider.
