Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life by Steve Martin

lighthearted reflective fast-paced

3.0

This is a memoir mostly about Steve Martin’s standup career, which is something I’m not very familiar with.  It was interesting, but not especially personal (except for stories about his relationship with his parents) and felt mostly like a generic stand up comedians story of growing through the ranks and growing in success.  I’d love to read a memoir that includes a lot more of his film career through all his SNL appearances and, mostly recently, Only Murders.  Maybe someday!
