With wisdom drawn from Bottrell's own professional highs and lows--and those of his acting compatriots from stage and screen--this book's humorous, tell-it-like-it-is tone provides career advice direct from the battlefield, perfect for today’s up-and-coming actors and anyone in need of acting-career inspiration.
