We all know him as Kramer in Seinfeld, the loveable 'hipster doofus,' that put us in stiches on a weekly basis.
But almost 20 years ago, at a stand-up performance at The Laugh Factory, he completely lost it and lashed out at hecklers, hurling obsenities and racial epithets at the crowd. The moment completely derailed his career and sent him into not only a public, but also a self-imposed exile. He apologized for the incident and says he spent the better part of the last two decades working on himself to be a better person.
The book covers not only that pivotal moment and his journey since, but gives us a lot of fun behind-the-scenes Seinfeld moments never heard before, and his battle with prostate cancer after he was diagnosed in 2018.
