What do many of these movies and television set shows have in common? Curtis Armstrong. A famous comedic second banana to a litany of major celebrities, Curtis is forever cemented in the public creativity as Booger from Revenge of the Nerds. A classically trained acting professional, Curtis began his amazing 40-year career onstage but advanced speedily to film and television set. He was typecast early, and it proved to be a very important thing that may have happened. But there's more to Curtis' report than that. Born and bred a nerd, he spent his early years between Detroit, a city so nerdy that the term was coined there in 1951, and, improbably, Geneva, Switzerland. His adolescence and early adulthood were spent primarily between the covers of a booklet and indulging his nerdy obsessions. It had been only when he found his true calling, as an acting professional and unintentional nerd icon, that he found true delight. With whip-smart, self-effacing laughter, Armstrong takes us on a most unlikely journey - one nerd's amusing, often touching surge to the center. He started out his life as an outcast and matured into...well, an older, slightly paunchier, preferably wiser outcast. In Hollywood, just as life, that counts as winning the overall game.
