A Great Book And Read!!!!By CustomerThe author; David Rothenberg; would have no reason to remember me; as I am a former volunteer instructor at the Fortune Society; but when I heard he had written a book about his life; I wanted to read what he was all about. This book looks at many different aspects of Mr. Rothenbergs life. His life working as a press agent in the theater is a real joy to read; and he has so many great tales to tell.Where the book is strongest though is when David discusses the criminal justice system and his coming out as a Gay man. His views of how the world views things; and how the world can be is a very powerful statement. His life of working with the formerly incarcerated is quite powerful; and more of these stories need to be covered in the news media; and newspapers; and not buried in the back pages either. David Rothenberg is a witness to how lives have been changed by the Fortune Society; an organization he founded.After reading this book you walk away with a feeling of hope and joy knowing that people like David Rothenberg have made the world a better place to live in for so many people. Kind of makes you wish there were more Davids in this world. I am glad to have met David in my life; and even happier now that I know that much more about him.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Broadway memories and moving tales of overcoming challenges.By David MayhewThe author would have no reason to remember me. I was a theater/nightclub publicist in NYC in the early 1980s and met him several times. He had been out of the biz for a number of years at the time (and was soon to return to the business we call "show"). But I really had no concept of what he had been doing in the interim and the experiences he had. I bought this book for my Kindle at a friends recommendation. I looked forward to being dazzled by the "Broadway Glamour" the title promised. The book delivered on that. But I was far more taken with the "Social Justice...". The stories are powerful; moving; often painful; more often inspiring. I wish that when I met David 30-some years ago I had known what his eyes had seen and ears had heard. I would have quizzed him. This book provided the answers to the questions I did not know I had. Thanks; David.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A revelationBy Lynda Siev LeslieA meaningful account of the injustices of the DOJ told by a man who became an advocate and activist for those newly released from prison. Mr. Rothenberg is a unique man who "put his money where his mouth was" and admirably did so much.
