"This is Not My Memoir tells the life story of André Gregory, iconic theatre director, writer, and actor. For the first time, Gregory shares memories from a life lived for art, including stories from the making of My Dinner with André. Taking on the dizzying, wondrous nature of a fever dream, This is Not My Memoir includes fantastic and fantastical stories that take the reader from wartime Paris to golden-age Hollywood, from avant-garde theaters to monasteries in India. Along the way we meet Jerzy Grotowski, Helene Weigel, Gregory Peck, Gurumayi Chidvilasananda, Wallace Shawn, and many other larger-than-life personalities." -- Amazon.com.
"The kaleidoscopic autobiography of director, actor, and artist André Gregory -- including stories from his birth in Nazi-Europe through his career in experimental theater and the creation of the cult classic film My Dinner with André"-- Provided by publisher.
