520    The actor best known for his iconic role as the irascible 
       emcee in "Cabaret" traces his remarkable life story, 
       documenting his Jewish-American upbringing in 1930s 
       Cleveland, childhood roles, rise to fame, and challenging 
       losses. 
520    "Joel Grey, the Academy Award-winning master of ceremonies
       in Cabaret, finally tells his remarkable life story. Born 
       Joel David Katz to a wild and woolly Jewish-American 
       family in 1930's Cleveland, Joel began his life in the 
       theater at the age of nine, starring in local productions 
       of touring Broadway hits. He was hooked, and the search 
       for the spotlight took him from the Cleveland Playhouse to
       seedy, gangster-filled nightclubs in Chicago, and finally 
       to the lights of Broadway and the dizzying glamour of 
       Hollywood. Master of Ceremonies is a memoir of a life 
       lived in and out of the limelight, but it is also the 
       story of the man behind the makeup. Coming of age in a 
       time when being yourself tended to be not only difficult 
       but also dangerous, Joel was required to act both on and 
       off stage. Deftly capturing the pain and secrets of an era
       we have only just started to leave behind, Joel's story is
       one of love, loss, hard-won honesty, redemption, and 
       success"--|cProvided by publisher.
