We talk to actor and writer Geoffrey Thorne.The actor turned writer tells his extraordinary story of riches to rags and back to riches again.He talks about why he walked away from a successful acting career in In the Heat of Night, the people that doubted him, the desperate times of pretending to be his own manager and being turned for a job drawing Disney-style porno promos.He talks about the struggles to make it as a writer, hanging on to the positive comments of one editor and building a varied career writing what he wanted.Geoffrey talks with extraordinary honesty - interspersed with some timely profanity - about the very real struggles of making it in a tough profession.A fun, heartfelt and candid journey through Hollywood.
