Those in the cultural community who have ever been concerned about the arts and political activism should have all their fears assuaged by this wonderful documentation.” —Harry Belafonte\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom its opening pages, Mike Farrell’s memoir reveals the distinctive voice of a man for whom life is an ongoing odyssey of self-discovery, personal commitment, and uncompromising social engagement. The world-renowned actor offers inspirational and often humorous reflections on his path to fame and progressive activism in this book, which became a \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e best-seller and drew tremendous national media attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith deep insight and disarming candor, Farrell describes his early years as a timid but restless teenager in West Hollywood, delivering groceries to the homes of Jack Benny, Lucille Ball, Jimmy Stewart, and countless other celebrities, while dreaming of having his own career as an actor. In stark but riveting language, he relates his formative years as a Marine recruit—confused, conflicted, and eager to prove himself as a man.

From his first-hand accounts of the ravages of war and oppression in Cambodia, El Salvador, Somalia, Bosnia, Rwanda, and the Gaza Strip, to his tireless advocacy against capital punishment, to his deep commitment to environmental causes, Farrell portrays each of these experiences with passion, outrage, and stubborn optimism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eBest known for his eight years on \u003ci\u003eM*A*S*H \u003c\/i\u003eand five seasons on \u003ci\u003eProvidence\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003cb\u003eMIKE FARRELL\u003c\/b\u003e is also a writer, director, and producer.
