If like me, you love Alan Cumming, it will be something you ALSO have in common with Barbara Hoffert who did a splendid job of interviewing him about his new book, Not My Father's Son (on sale 10/7). In his own entertaining voice (too bad we can't actually hear the delightful accent), Alan shares the emotional story of his complicated relationship with his father and the deeply buried family secrets that shaped his life and career.
You can watch the whole interview here (worth it!), but here are some snippets to whet your interest:
"What did you discover about your family and why did you turn it into a book?"
"How did you find the courage to confront your father?"
Watch, Read, Enjoy! And if you happen to be in NYC, go see Alan in Cabaret! It's magic.
