Stories I Only Tell My Friends: An Autobiography

A teen idol at fifteen, an international icon and founder of the Brat Pack at twenty, and one of Hollywood's top stars to this day, Rob Lowe chronicles his experiences as a painfully misunderstood child actor in Ohio uprooted to the wild counterculture of mid-seventies Malibu, where he embarked on his unrelenting pursuit of a career in Hollywood.

The Outsiders placed Lowe at the birth of the modern youth movement in the entertainment industry. During his time on The West Wing, he witnessed the surreal nexus of show business and politics both on the set and in the actual White House. And in between are deft and humorous stories of the wild excesses that marked the eighties, leading to his quest for family and sobriety.

Never mean-spirited or salacious, Lowe delivers unexpected glimpses into his successes, disappointments, relationships, and one-of-a-kind encounters with people who shaped our world over the last twenty-five years. These stories are as entertaining as they are unforgettable.

This book is for fans of Rob Lowe, and for anyone who experienced one or more movies in the 80s when the "Brat Pack" was making its mark on the Hollywood scene. It is also for anyone who would like a glimpse into the journey a young man took to follow his dream and act for a living.

Lowe is to the point and straightforward in his storytelling. He rises above Hollywood gossip. He shares his life experiences, many of which at first seem to be trivial and uneventful but then we see they were actually extraordinary, including some early encounters with very well known actors, actresses, producers, directors and others in the business as well as high profile political figures. Highly recommend.
