And, since Grodin is one of the best storytellers around, he cant help but entertain while offering insight gained from a wealth of experience.<br />The combination of being impeached as class president by his fifth grade teacher (and then winning many school elections thereafter) with being thrown out of Hebrew School for asking too many questions (only to find a much better teacher as a result) informed Grodins view of himself and made him adept at dealing with rejection--an important skill for an actor. Grodins success in plays in high school and adventures in college theater led him to a career in acting, studying with the great teachers like Uta Hagen and Lee Strasberg.<br />Grodin shares behind-the-scenes tales of working on plays like <em>Same Time Next Year</em> and movies like <em>The Heartbreak Kid</em> and <em>Midnight Run</em>--even how close he came to playing the lead in <em>The Graduate.</em> His stories feature the many actors, directors, writers, and producers, with whom hes worked, such as Robert DeNiro, Dustin Hoffman, Johnny Carson, Orson Welles, Warren Beatty, and other colorful characters.<br />Grodins greatest work isnt limited to stage and screen, however. He has been an award winning talk show host and commentator on <em>Sixty Minutes II</em>, and he reveals insights about the political and personal side of journalism and some of the larger-than-life characters hes interviewed.<br />Still, it is the personal aspects of Grodins life that are truly revealing and funny. He shares intimate anecdotes of humorous dating experiences during the carefree 70s along with stories of what it was like to be a young actor then with friends and colleagues like Robert Redford, Gene Wilder, and Dustin Hoffman.<br />But it is Grodins tales of the lives hes helped save with his relentless advocacy work that make you realize what a great guy Charles Grodin really is. We are lucky that the nice guy his friends call, "Chuck" brings us along to share a little of his journey of how he got to be who he really is!<br /><em>The author is donating 100 percent of his royalties from sales of this book to Mentoring USA, a New York City based nonprofit that forges powerful, transformative connections for young people through the advocacy and involvement of mentors.</em></p>...9780446554640_Grand Central Publishingpreventa9780446554640_9780446554640Charles GrodinInglésMéxico2025-05-01T00:00:00+00:00Grand Central Publishing
