Art Carney: A Biography Book

Capering into fame as Jackie Gleason's sidekick in The Honeymooners, Art Carney proved later that he was no mere television personality but a real actor. He originated the part of neurotic Felix in Neil Simon's 1965 Broadway smash The Odd Couple, and his dual role in Brian Friel's Lovers garnered a 1968 Tony nomination; he won an Academy Award in 1974 for his poignant performance in Harry and Tonto. Michael Seth Starr traces this varied career with perception and empathy, revealing a hard-drinking, introverted, extremely private man totally unlike the blithely goofy Ed Norton.Read More

    The story of the man behind THE HONEYMOONERS' beloved sewer-worker Ed Norton. "Tracing Carney's life from his childhood and early days in radio through his struggles with alcoholism and depression and prolific work in theater, TV, and film, Starr peels away the 78-year-old's second-banana image. What's left is an accomplished actor who has earned six Emmys and an Oscar. . . ".--Elisa Zuritsky, TV GUIDE.
