Publisher's summary

There I Go Again is a celebrity memoir like no other, revealing the life of a man whose acting career has been so rich that millions of Americans know his face even while they might not recognize his name.

William Daniels is an enigma - a rare chameleon who has enjoyed massive success both in Hollywood and on Broadway and been embraced by fans of successive generations. Few of his peers inspire the fervor with which buffs celebrate his most iconic roles, among them George Feeny in Boy Meets World, KITT in Knight Rider, Dr. Mark Craig in St. Elsewhere, and John Adams in the play and film 1776.

Daniels guides listeners through some of Hollywood's most cherished productions, offering recollections of entertainment legends including Lauren Bacall, Warren Beatty, Kirk Douglas, Michael Douglas, Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Mike Nichols, Jason Robards, Barbra Streisand, and many more.

Looking back on his 75-plus-year career, Daniels realizes that although he never had the courage to say "no" to being an actor, he backed into stardom. With his wife, actress Bonnie Bartlett, by his side, he came to realize that he wound up exactly where he was supposed to be: on the screen and stage.

Wonderful Memoir

I have appreciated William Daniels' talent since seeing the movie 1776 on a class trip back in the early 70's. It was his performance as John Adams that prompted my love for studying American History. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing about his life. He has lived through some very interesting times and met so many iconic people. Very enjoyable listen. Only thing that would have made it better would have been him reading it.

Loved listening to the autobiography of one of my favorite actors.

I just wish he could have done the actually reading.

I’m a voice guy and his is iconic !

Excellent book

It was enjoyable to learn about an actor I enjoyed watching as I grew up. I grew up first watching him on St Elsewhere then Knight Rider and last Boy meets World. We never know the person, only the actor and I am glad I got to learn about his vast and amazing past. It was very interesting to learn about the person and his beliefs and personal choices.

so much more than Feeny!

William Daniels has an incredible life and has done so much. It was interesting to hear how much he's accomplished and where his life took him. I do wish it was ready by him, tho. The narrator was a little too monotone and took me a while to get used to.

Mr Feeney absent from class

Odd that a celebrity memoir isn’t read by the celebrity. Otherwise, the stories are interesting and one learns a great deal about the interesting life of one of our great character actors.

Better Than I’d Hoped

I added this book because it was included with my subscription and I enjoy William Daniels’ work. I wasn’t prepared for what a fantastic listen it would be. The chapters on his life as a stage actor in New York in the fifties were especially compelling, and will delight any listener with an interest in theatre. Full of a lifetime of perspective and juicy insider stories. Like everyone else, I missed Daniels’ iconic voice reading his words, but it would be an awful lot to expect from a man in his nineties.

What an entertaining book!

As talented as he is as an actor, William Daniels is equally adept at writing. I have read this book several times. I go back to it when I’m feeling kind of down and need a lift. Love this book!

Great Story About a Great Man

Loved learning about a man whose voice and characters have meant so much to my life.

Only wish a revised addition would come out narrated by him instead.
