The memoir tells how a Romanian chauffeur and an Hungarian-American waitress marry after a one week courtship and spend the next fifty years pursing the American Dream through the Great Depression, WWII, and finally to the enchanted hills of Hollywood where they hope their tap dancing, violin playing son will break into the movies. And why shouldn't he? Wasn't anything possible in America? This and many other questions of even less importance are answered in this lovingly told tale by that son. Who did he turn out to be? No, not Clark Gable. No, not Sidney Poitier. Clue: Try one of TV's top ranked comedy writers. No, not Tina Fey.
