Description
by Ike Eisenmann (Author)
"You'll never be a star!"
That's what young Ike Eisenmann's father would tell him, even as he trotted him from one audition to another. Despite those confusing and cruel messages, Ike undauntedly pursued his dream of being a Disney actor-a dream he made come true, starting with Escape to Witch Mountain! In this intimate and inspiring memoir, Ike shares his triumphs and struggles, and his behind-the-scenes experiences working with such legendary actors as Bette Davis, Kim Richards, Roddy McDowall, George C. Scott, Beau Bridges, and William Shatner, documenting his fantastic journey to become one the most beloved and successful child stars of the 1970s.
"I'm always inspired and filled with joy when I see someone go after their dreams - and achieve them - in spite of everything. Ike Eisenmann, a wonderfully talented child actor and a kind, intelligent, accomplished adult, climbed over the wall of his father's mental illness and cruelty to realize his Disney dreams... and so much more. I'm proud to know him."
-Alison Arngrim, NY Times Best Selling Author of Confessions of a Prairie Bitch
"Ike Eisenmann's memoir is more than just a look at his life; it's a heartfelt journey from his iconic role in Escape to Witch Mountain to his adventures beyond the screen, sharing stories that are as honest and relatable as they are fascinating. This memoir is a must-read."
-Patrick Labyorteaux, Little House on the Prairie, Heathers, JAG
"Growing up and being recognized as a 'child star' is about the most unusual, difficult, and confusing way to start a life. Throw in Ike's father, and the challenge seems insurmountable. Trapped in what I would call a no-win situation, Ike wins. He doesn't just =survive."
-Moosie Drier, Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, The Bob Newhart Show, Oh, God!
