Are You Anybody?: A Memoir Audiobook (Free)

You know him from his breakout role as Hank Kingsley for the Larry Sanders Show, his outrageous turn as George and Oscar Bluth on Arrested Advancement, and his Emmy Award-winning performance as Maura Pfefferman on Transparent. A Broadway star, a television tale, an accomplished display acting professional whose singular wit and heartrending shows have been interesting audiences for a lot more than four decades, but the question remains: Who the hell is definitely Jeffrey Tambor?

In his illuminating, often hilarious, about Are You Anybody?: A Memoir and always honest memoir, Tambor looks back at the main element moments in his lifestyle that taught him about creativeness and play and pain and dread. The boy of everything you might contact ‘eccentric’ Russian and Hungarian Jewish parents, Tambor grew up in San Francisco a husy kid with a lisp, who suffered in his ‘otherness’ and found salvation in the theater.

While he learned his art from the very best from the best—Al Pacino, George C. Scott, Garry Shandling, Mitch Hurwitz, Jill Soloway—he also introduces his many unforeseen teachers, through the nameless man inside a Detroit bookstore who offered him the like of reading, to his young children who (as of this ridiculously past due stage in his lifestyle) have got reintroduced him to play, bravery, and the simple joy of not giving a shit.

Tambor shares the triumph of getting his initial Broadway role, however, not before exceptional humbling that is commercial work (and how even telling ‘my socks don’t cling’ may prove a challenge). He invites you behind the moments of his wildly successful tv shows, but he doesn’t leave out the pit halts he made at habit, Scientology, and what it feels as though to get fourth billing after Sylvia the Seal for the Love Boat.

Finally, Tambor answers the issue ‘Are you anybody?’ using a guarantee that achievement doesn’t mean excellence and failure most surely is an choice.
