Emmy Award-winning television star Regis Philbin has entertained
millions of Americans every weekday morning for the past 28 years
hosting, in various incarnations, the popular show "Live! with
Regis and Kelly". Referred to often as the hardest working man in
television, he has rubbed elbows and egos with countless
personalities. His innate curiosity and wit has enabled him to
learn great life lessons from the most legendary and formidable of
them. Now in a most unique memoir Regis shares all that these
experiences have taught him about achieving success and
happiness-and about maintaining both for as long as he has! It is
the ultimate gift to his fans as he departs the show in November of
2011, closing one very long and rich chapter of his life to begin
yet another. From an awkward first meeting with Jack Nicholson to
early encounters with a young Ronald Reagan and a shy,
as-of-yet-unknown, eighteen-year-old Steven Spielberg, Regis
reveals the many influences that have shaped his life philosophy
and career. Recounted here are stories about chance meetings,
interactions and full-blown adventures with Bing Crosby, Donald
Trump, Don Rickles, Dave Letterman, Dean Martin, Johnny Carson,
Jack Paar, three legendary Notre Dame coaches - Frank Leahy, Ara
Parseghian, and Lou Holt-Joe DiMaggio, Jerry Seinfeld, Cary Grant,
Bill Cosby, Walter Winchell, John Severino (his most notorious and
life-changing boss), Marine Majors Rankin and Flake, George
Clooney, George Steinbrenner, Charles Grodin, Howard Stern and
others. Of course, there are also chapters devoted to his co-stars
of many years Kelly Ripa and Kathie Lee Gifford, and one that is
nothing less than a moving love-letter to his wife of 41 years, Joy
Philbin. Invaluable advice closes each chapter with the trademark
gratitude and humility that has made Regis Philbin such a national
treasure. Inspiring anecdotes, laugh-out-loud tales and awkward
celebrity moments make this so much more than a memoir-it truly is
Regis' personal guide to living a positive life. Marked by same
tongue-in-cheek humor and candor Regis has always displayed, this
book will serve and endure as a reminder of why America has related
to and loved this one-of-a-kind television legend for so many
decades.
