Book Review! Born Standing Up by Steve Martin

Noel Goodman Season 1 Episode 11

Steve Martin's career has had many peaks and valleys over many different mountains. From music, to movies, to books, to his first love in stand up comedy. His life and art have often intersected in surprising, hilarious, and heart breaking ways. His contribution to stand up is as timeless and American as the banjo music he later mastered.  The story of his rise to fame and his quiet departure from the stage outlines a country breaking free of an era into a wild and crazy future. Lucky for us we had the right guy for the job.
