Actress of a Certain Age

“Suffused with charm and sparkling real-life anecdotes on the grueling Hollywood machine, Hiller’s book is a must-read for any performer trying to make it in the entertainment industry… . A chatty, hilarious, effervescently entertaining autobiography anchored by self-deprecating humility and humanity.” * Kirkus Reviews *“This book filled me with warm nostalgia for the New York comedy scene at the turn of the century! Jeff Hiller is a human crocheted blanket and I want to lay on a couch underneath him.”  – Tina Fey“Hiller, best known for his role in the HBO show Somebody Somewhere, strikes a balance between heartfelt and hilarious in his winning debut… . Hiller’s humanity and vulnerability are front and center, making for a touching account of the uncertainties that accompany an acting career. This hits all the marks.” * Publishers Weekly *“All my favorite things about Jeff are in this book: his huge heart, humor and charm. Whether you take Actress of a Certain Age with you to the beach, on a plane, or while you do tee-tee pah-pah, you’ll be in the best of hands.”  – Bridget Everett, comedian, singer, and star of Somebody Somewhere“I had the pleasure of casting Jeff in my show Nightcap where he proved to be comedic gold. As a talent both on and off the page, Jeff Hiller is a creative powerhouse that we will be enjoying for many years to come.” – Ali Wentworth, New York Times bestselling author of Go Ask Ali“Jeff Hiller uses heart, humor and hope like encouraging lampposts to illuminate the way to others who might feel lost on the dark and twisty road to self-discovery and in his case—stardom. Actress of a Certain Age is like a hilarious, inspirational prayer to all of us from the Patron Saint of Late Bloomers.” – Michael Patrick King, writer, Sex and The City and The Comeback“I loved this warm, wonderful, hilarious and tender book so much.  I knew Jeff Hiller from Somebody Somewhere (And if you haven’t seen it stop reading this blurb immediately and start watching.  You’re welcome.) and now I know him as the author of one of my favorite essay collections.” – Gary Janetti, New York Times bestselling author of Do You Mind If I Cancel?
