       many people who struggle with this distressing disorder."-
       -Jane Fraser, president, The Stuttering Foundation of 
       AmericaFor thirty-three years, Scott Damian sought freedom
       from stuttering and being imprisoned by the terror of 
       being unable to utter a single word, until he transformed 
       into a highly successful actor and writer. Scott speaks to
       the heart and soul of a stutterer, and addresses healing, 
       help, and hope for the millions who are similarly 
       afflicted. Damian is the 2012 winner of the Converting 
       Awareness into Action Award from the Stuttering Foundation
       of America."--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    "V-V-Voice ... the word sticks in the back of your throat.
       Your mouth shudders as your teeth grit together. You push,
       trying to get the word out. A jarring, jackhammer sound 
       gurgles out of your mouth. Your face contorts and your 
       body shakes as judging eyes stare at you. A shameful 
       feeling washes over you. Your soul is forever crushed. 
       These are the humiliating trials that 60 million 
       stutterers worldwide endure each and everyday ... and 
       Scott Damian is one of them. In this gritty, raw memoir, 
       Damian details the stirring battles he endured while 
       searching for a solution to his inability to speak without
       stuttering. From his haunting blue-collar childhood in New
       Orleans to the physical and psychological scars that led 
       Damian down a path of self-destructive behavior that was 
       as crippling as the stuttering itself, "V-V-Voice: A 
       Stutterer's Odyssey" chronicles the struggles of one 
       stutterer to do the unimaginable; to use his voice as an 
       actor and a writer, and help others find their own"--
