Thom Bierdz is currently on a recurring role on CBS' "The Young and the Restless--"with seven million daily viewers--reprising his role from twenty years ago. He is a fan favorite and his book opens all of the doors and windows into his personal life of tragedy and redemption, the murder of his mother, familial mental illness, and Thom's now openly gay and proud lifestyle. Thom has forgiven his schizophrenic brother, Troy, who will spend the rest of his life in a Wisconsin state prison.
