Press Release for Waiting for my Fingers
Memoirs of a Hollywood Adventure
I met Mac Nelson when I first moved to New York City. The stories in Memoirs of a Hollywood Adventure are the ones that inspired me as I was first starting out as a professional actor. Mac's the best story teller I've ever heard, and every time I introduce someone to Mac I beg him to tell one story after the next. Now they're all (well most of them are) in this fabulous book, and Mac's writing is even better than his story-telling! I found myself laughing or crying on almost every page. I'm recommending Memoirs of a Hollywood Adventure to my theatre students at The MasterWorks Festival because it has so many insights into the craft, business and pitfalls of surviving as a professional actor.

It's wonderful! Just wonderful.

Mac's book is generous, bold, and moving because (I can attest as a friend who witnessed much of it happening) it's all true. A great read for believers in the healing Christ as well as believers of all faiths or no faith who may be contemplating the question, "Did the resurrection of Christ really, really happen? If so, does that mean He has the power and will to heal today?" Mac's story gently but clearly answers with a resounding "Yes!"

Mac Nelson, writer, actor, director, singer, dancer, playwright and teacher shares his journey of physical and spiritual healing with a transparency that is rare, occasionally shocking and always inspirational.

I lived through much of this story with Mac, who was best man at my wedding. To relive it through Mac's eloquent prose highlighted the heights and depths of the experience in ways that brought fresh redemption to it all. This summer I'm bringing Mac to The MasterWorks Festival as a master class instructor for the theatre program. As a part of the faculty recital Mac will be performing alongside other world-class artists, and his performance will literally be miraculous!
