In this particular engagingly witty, wise, and heartfelt memoir, Martin Brief tells the story of what sort of showbiz-obsessed kid from Canada altered himself into one of Hollywood's favorite funnymen, known to his famous peers as the "comedian's comedian". Martin Short takes you on a abundant, hilarious, and once in a while heartbreaking trip through his life and times, from his early on years in Toronto as an associate of the fabled improvisational troupe Second City to the all-American comic big time of Sunday Nighttime Live and memorable functions in films such as ¡Three Amigos! and Daddy of the Bride-to-be. He uncovers how he created his most indelible comedic people, included in this the manic man-child Ed Grimley, the slimy corporate lawyer Nathan Thurm, and the bizarrely insensitive interviewer Jiminy Glick. Throughout, Brief freely shares the limelight with friends, fellow workers, and collaborators, including Steve Martin, Tom Hanks, Gilda Radner, Mel Brooks, Nora Ephron, Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, Paul Shaffer, and David Letterman. But there is another area to Short's life that he has long stored private. He lost his eldest sibling and both of his parents by enough time he transformed 20, and, recently, he lost his better half of 30 years to tumor. In I Must Say, Brief talks for the first time about the pain these deficits inflicted and the upbeat life beliefs that has stored him resilient and transported him through. Inside the grand traditions of humor legends, Martin Brief offers a show business memoir densely filled with boldface labels and rife with re-tellable tales: a hugely entertaining yet incredibly moving self-portrait that will keep you laughing - and crying - from the first webpage to the previous. Special Lyrics for "It's The Most Wonderful Show of the entire year" and "Picture-Perfect Xmas In The Palisades" by Martin Brief, Marc Shaiman, and Scott Wittman; Special Lyrics for "Marty Throws a Party Just to Sing" by Marc Shaiman.
