Anyone who thinks working actors have a soft life should think
harder, and read this book. In fact, being an unemployed actor in
Hollywood is no bed of ... well, newspaper, though it can certainly
end up as one Rob Foster's "Hollywoodn't - The Mad March To
Stardumb" will leave you laughing and perhaps a bit enlightened
about the strange, alternate universe that wanna-be actors and
performers must navigate in the pursuit of their show business
dream, if they are courageous enough to venture to Hollywood with
no connections, no references, no day job, no uncle or cousin
already in the industry, or even a pal with a spare bedroom. Author
Rob Foster - actor, writer, prize-winning filmmaker and winner of
the 2006 "Aristocrats" joke contest - relives some of his cracked
"year-one" adventures while on just such a mission. Maniacal
agents, uninhibited managers, pokerfaced show runners, dangerous
landlords - and even an occasional stray celebrity - make memorable
cameos in this epic of one normal guy's journey to make sense of a
world where "normal" is the most subjective term of all.
