Hard-to-find first edition, first printing, signed (5-18-78) hardcover (with dust jacket) volume of Ben Stein's early biographical diary (1978) of his early days in Los Angeles. "When Ben Stein arrived in Los Angeles in 1976, he had shaken off 30 years of doing the right thing - this book is 'the actual diary of the year of bizarre adventures in which he shed his caterpillar self to emerge as the winged and winging creature he was meant to be' - a year of palm trees, wheeler-dealers, golden girls, the winners and losers, the coke and the crazies, the wonder of Stein's L.A. - the wonder of 1970's LA." "Benjamin Jeremy Stein (born 1944) is an American writer, lawyer, actor, comedian, and commentator on political and economic issues. He began his career as a speechwriter for U.S. presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford before entering the entertainment field as an actor, comedian, and game show host. He is best known on screen as the economics teacher in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, as the host of Win Ben Stein's Money, and as Dr. Arthur Neuman in The Mask and Son of the Mask. Stein also co-wrote and starred in the 2008 propaganda film Expelled promoting pseudoscientific intelligent design creationist claims of persecution. Stein is the son of economist and writer Herbert Stein, who worked at the White House under President Nixon. As a character actor he is well known for his droning, monotonous delivery. In comedy, he is known for his deadpan delivery." Condition: Good used condition, coming from a smoke-free, pet-free environment.
