PHiL DONAfIUE, the number one
syndicated television talk-show
host in America, tells his own re-
markable life story in this candid, enter-
taining, fast-paced autobiography, from
his childhood in Cleveland during the
1940s to his present success with Donahue,
the show watched daily by millions of
loyal viewers in over 200 cities nationwide.
Donahuc begins by describing his
mixed feelings about being a celebrity,
examining "the special neuroses of fa-
mous people." Hc recalls what it was like
to grow up as all Irish Catholic in the
atmosphere of pride and prejudice follow-
ing World War II, writing humorously
about his first fistfight, his first kiss ("the
briefest and driest moment in all erotica")
and his years at Notre Dame ("l,iving all
week with George O Donnell and being
constantly surrounded by guys, at the
car, in Cost Accounting class.., every-
where.., did more for weekend lust than
a low-budget porno film").
He recalls how for months after gradu-
ating from college he couldn t get a job in
his field at all, and describes his early years
as an announcer and radio and TV journal-
ist in Adrian, Michigan, and Dayton, Ohio
(" ... Mrs. Nixon, you ve had a number
of proud moments in your life... and
when I said proud I spat right in her
eye").
Taking the reader onto the set of Dona-
hue, he explains why audience participa-
tion is the most important part of his show,
