Summary:

"A revealing, poignant, and hilarious memoir from the cultural icon, gay rights activist, and four-time Tony Award winner.

He's received accolades and awards for acting-Hairspray, Fiddler, Mrs. Doubtfire, Independence Day-and writing: La Cage Aux Folle, Torch Song Trilogy (for which he also won a Tony for acting) and Kinky Boots.
