A classically trained actor, Curtis began his incredible 40-year career on stage but progressed rapidly to film and television. He was typecast early and it proved to be the best thing that could have happened. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut there's \u003ci\u003emore\u003c\/i\u003e to Curtis' story than that. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn and bred a nerd, he spent his early years between Detroitamp;mdash;a city so nerdy that the word was coined there in 1951amp;mdash;and, improbably, Geneva, Switzerland. His adolescence and early adulthood was spent primarily between the covers of a book and indulging his nerdy obsessions. It was only when he found his true calling, as an actor and unintentional nerd icon, that he found true happiness. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith whip-smart, self-effacing humor, Armstrong takes us on a most unlikely journeyamp;mdash;one nerd's hilarious, often touching rise to the middle. He started his life as an outcast and matured into...well, an older, slightly paunchier, hopefully wiser outcast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Hollywood, as in life, that counts as winning the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Macmillan Audio production.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47104306708720,"sku":"2940169139495","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169139495_p0.jpg?v=1763673665","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169139495","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
