Inside Inside (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Over the years, Inside the Actors Studio has brought more than 200 of the world's most celebrated actors, directors, writers and performing artists into 84,000,000 homes in America and 125 countries around the world. Now James Lipton-its host and creator-is offering the reader of this book a backstage pass to the award-winning series-and to his own amazing journey to its stage. You will witness, in unprecedented close-up, the wit, wisdom and candor of a galaxy of stars, from Al Pacino, Barbra Streisand, Robin Williams and Steven Spielberg to Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie, Johnny Depp and many more. With the same candor he demands of his guests, James Lipton also reveals a life that began under the tutelage of a poet, his father, and a teacher, his mother; continued in the orbit of theatrical giants like Stella Adler; and, as writer and producer, took him to the White House with two presidents, the Great Wall of China with Bob Hope, and legendary days and nights in New York, London, and Paris with "the heroes of his life" and ours. This book is a sincere and passionate celebration of the arts and artists we admire-and thought we knew until this moment.
