About The Book:

Part backstage pass and part masterclass in resilience, Stories of My Life gathers nearly 1,000 bite-sized anecdotes from a remarkable career at the intersection of Broadway, Hollywood, and spiritual seeking. Readers dip in and out of hilarious mishaps with Disney legends and Broadway icons, tender reflections on loss and identity, and hard-won wisdom about finding meaning in life’s most awkward moments. At 442 pages, it is a gift-ready treasury designed for the bedside table and the coffee table alike.

David Friedman is a Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Award-winning composer and conductor whose credits include Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. A producer for the late singer Nancy LaMott and a songwriter for Diana Ross, he is the author of The Thought Exchange, We Can Be Kind, Help Is on the Way, and How They Met. He lives at the crossroads of show business and spirit, and his stories prove the two were never far apart.
