Summary:

You know him from his breakout role as Hank Kingsley on The Larry Sanders Show, his outrageous turn as George and Oscar Bluth on Arrested Advancement, and his Emmy Award-winning performance as Maura Pfefferman on Transparent. A Broadway superstar, a television star, an accomplished display acting professional whose singular wit and heartrending performances have been amusing audiences for more than four decades, but the question continues to be: Who the hell is Jeffrey Tambor?

In his illuminating, often hilarious, about Are You Anybody?: A Memoir and usually honest memoir, Tambor appears back at the key moments in his existence that taught him about creativeness and play and pain and fear. The kid of what you might call ‘eccentric’ Russian and Hungarian Jewish parents, Tambor was raised in SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA a husy kid with a lisp, who experienced in his ‘otherness’ and discovered salvation in the theatre.

While he learned his art from the best from the best—Al Pacino, George C. Scott, Garry Shandling, Mitch Hurwitz, Jill Soloway—he also presents his many unforeseen teachers, from the nameless man in a Detroit bookstore who offered him the love of reading, to his small children who (as of this ridiculously past due stage in his lifestyle) possess reintroduced him to play, bravery, and the simple joy of not really providing a shit.

Tambor stocks the triumph of landing his initial Broadway role, but not before exceptional humbling that’s commercial work (and exactly how even saying ‘my socks don’t cling’ can prove challenging). He invites you behind the moments of his wildly effective television shows, but he doesn’t omit the pit halts he produced at habit, Scientology, and what it feels like to get 4th billing after Sylvia the Seal in the Love Boat.
