註釋Revealing the struggles and realities of being an actor, Role of a Lifetime views this truly dramatic profession from within, as it examines the lives of Austin Pendleton, Gloria Foster, Lois Smith, and Ron Rifkin. On the basis of in-depth interviews, author Robert Simonson devotes a chapter to each of these outstanding actors - none of whom is a big star or celebrity with glamour and supernatural luck, but all of whom are hard-working artists who have earned their success - often against great odds - on the stage, in films, and on television. Telling how these performers battled rejection, rebounded from artistic and personal crises, learned their craft, and redefined themselves at critical points in their careers, this unique account is full of details about their workaday existence.
