As one of the most popular performers on Comedy Central's
mega-hit The Chappelle Show, Charlie Murphy--older brother of
comedy legend Eddie Murphy--shares his passion for comedy and tells
his true Hollywood stories in this juicy and highly entertaining
memoir.
Once described by Chris Rock as "Eddie Murphy on acid," Charlie
Murphy has achieved fame as a recurring performer on the critically
acclaimed, three-time Emmy-nominated cult sensation Chappelle's
Show on Comedy Central. Celebrated in particular for his "Charlie
Murphy's True Hollywood Stories" skits, featuring hilarious
renditions of Rick James and Prince, Murphy now recounts many of
the actual stories that inspired these popular sketches in vivid
and comical detail in Doing Time: The Making of a Stand-Up Guy.
With his flare for storytelling and his distinctive and fearless
voice, it's no wonder that Charlie Murphy has been the subject of
many featured stories in numerous magazines, including GQ, Essence,
Rolling Stone, and he was recently listed as one of the Hottest
People to Watch in Entertainment Weekly's "Must List." Featuring
outrageous misadventures as part of his younger brother Eddie's
entourage, and hysterical encounters with numerous celebrities,
Doing Time: The Making of a Stand-Up Guy is a fascinating and
wildly funny chronicle from one of the most talented comedians
today.
