The legendary icon tells his story-a tale of art, passion,
commitment, addiction, as intense and hypnotic as the man himself.
In a career spanning five decades, Nick Nolte has endured the rites
of Hollywood celebrity. Rising from obscurity to leading roles and
Oscar nominations, he has been both celebrated and vilified in the
media; survived marriages, divorces, and a string of romances; was
named the "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine; and suffered
public humiliation over his drug and alcohol issues, including a
drug-fueled trip down a "long road of nothingness" that ended in
arrest. Despite these ups and downs, Nolte has remained true to the
craft he loves, portraying a diverse range of characters with his
trademark physicality and indelible gravelly voice. Already 35 when
his performance in the 1976 miniseries Rich Man, Poor Man launched
him to stardom, Nolte never learned to play by Hollywood's rules. A
rebel who defies expectations, an obsessive method actor who will
go to extremes for a role (he lived among the homeless to prepare
for Down and Out in Beverly Hills), Nolte is motivated more by
edgier, more personal projects than by box office success. Today he
is clean yet still driven, juggling a number of upcoming works and
raising his young daughter. A man who refuses to hide his mistakes,
Nolte now delivers his most revealing performance yet. His
revealing memoir, filled with sixteen pages of color photos, offers
a candid, unvarnished close-up look at the man, the career, the
loves, and the life.
