"I HOPE YOU'LL FIND THIS BOOK BY MY FRIEND JOE JACOBY AS REWARDING AS I DID."
   MARTIN SCORSESE - From the Introduction.



"Joseph Jacoby combines a compelling narrative of parental abandonment with a vivid account of his experiences as an independent filmmaker in New York in the 1960s and 70s - a uniquely 20th century story recalling the glory days of exploitation on Forty-second Street and the struggles of a maverick in a dying Hollywood system."
   - RON MAGLIOZZI, Assistant Curator Research and Collections Department of Film and Media, THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART.

"Engrossing, offbeat...account of Jacoby's lonely childhood and how his imagination led him into the world of film and television."
   - LIBRARY JOURNAL

"There is a fundamental truth here, and a universal humanism."
   - ALBERT MAYSLES, Recipient of The National Medal of Arts, and described as "The Dean of Documentary Filmmakers" by The New York Times.

"TRIUMPHANT!"
   - JUDITH CRIST, Noted American Film Critic.
