Like Rachael Ray and Dr. Phil before her, it seems Jenny McCarthy is hitching her brand to Oprah Winfrey's star: the actress turned autism expert has signed a deal with Harpo Productions to work on a few projects, including a blog and a talk show.
The blog launched Friday on Oprah.com, and is the first collaboration that falls under the deal. Jenny has often apeared on Oprah's show, discussing her efforts to understand her son's autism, chronicled in her books, Louder Than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism and Mother Warriors: A Nation of Parents Healing Autism Against All Odds.
