The
New York Times
Best Seller.
Part biography, part critical appreciation, part love letter—and all fun—this enormous full-color volume, packed with color film stills and behind-the-scenes photography, chronicles every Murray performance in loving detail, recounting all the milestones, legendary “Murray stories,” and controversies in the life of this enigmatic performer.
He’s played a deranged groundskeeper, a bellowing lounge singer, a paranormal exterminator, and a grouchy weatherman. He is William James “Bill” Murray, America’s greatest national treasure. From his childhood lugging golf bags at a country club to his first taste of success on
Saturday Night Live
, from his starring roles in Hollywood blockbusters to his reinvention as a hipster icon for the twenty-first century,
The Big Bad Book of Bill Murray
chronicles every aspect of his extraordinary life and career.
He’s the sort of actor who can do
Hamlet
and
Charlie’s Angels
in the same year. He shuns managers and agents, and he once agreed to voice the lead in
Garfield
because he mistakenly believed it was a Coen Brothers film. He’s famous for crashing house parties all over New York City—and if he keeps photobombing random strangers, he might just break the Internet.
