Becoming Richard Pryor

AuthorScott Saul
Rating
Price957

Becoming Richard Pryor brings the man and his comic genius into focus as never before. Drawing upon a mountain of original researchâ€”interviews with family and friends, court transcripts, unpublished journals, screenplay draftsâ€”Scott Saul traces Pryorâ€™s rough journey to the heights of fame: from his heartbreaking childhood, his trials in the Army, and his apprentice days in Greenwich Village to his soul-searching interlude in Berkeley and his ascent in the â€œNew Hollywoodâ€ of the 1970s. Becoming Richard Pryor illuminates an entertainer who, by bringing together the spirits of the black freedom movement and the counterculture, forever altered the DNA of American comedy. It reveals that, while Pryor made himself a legend with his own account of his life onstage, the full truth of that life is more bracing still.
