After the incredible response to his acclaimed bestseller, Stories I Only Tell My Friends, Rob Lowe was convinced to mine his experiences for even more stories. The result is Love Life, a memoir about men and women, actors and producers, art and commerce, fathers and sons, movies and TV, addiction and recovery, sex and love. Among the adventures he describes in these pages are:
- His visit, as a young man, to Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion, where the naïve actor made a surprising discovery in the hot tub.
- What it's like to be the star and producer of a flop TV show.
- How an actor prepares, for Californification, Parks and Recreation, and numerous other roles.
- His hilarious account of coaching a kid's basketball team dominated by helicopter parents.
- How his great, great, great, great, great grandfather may have inspired everything from his love of The West Wing to his taste in classic American architecture.
- His first visit to college, with his son, who is going to receive the education his father never got.
- The time a major movie star stole his girlfriend.
Linked by common themes and his philosophical perspective on love--and life--Lowe's writing is loaded with showbiz anecdotes, self-deprecating tales, and has a general sweetness (New York Post).
