A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITOR'S CHOICEA SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE BEST BOOK OF THE YEARA VULTURE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR "A generous, appreciative biography of Robin Williams by a New York Times culture reporter. The author, who had access to Williams and members of the comedian’s family, is an unabashed fan but doesn’t shy away from the abundant messiness in his subject’s personal life."—The New York Times Book Review From New York Times culture reporter Dave Itzkoff, the definitive biography of Robin Williams – a compelling portrait of one of America’s most beloved and misunderstood entertainers.From his rapid-fire stand-up comedy riffs to his breakout role in Mork & Mindy and his Academy Award-winning performance in Good Will Hunting, Robin Williams was a singularly innovative and beloved entertainer. He often came across as a man possessed, holding forth on culture and politics while mixing in personal revelations – all with mercurial, tongue-twisting intensity as he inhabited and shed one character after another with lightning speed. But as Dave Itzkoff shows in this revelatory biography, Williams’s comic brilliance masked a deep well of conflicting emotions and self-doubt, which he drew upon in his comedy and in celebrated films like Dead Poets Society; Good Morning, Vietnam; The Fisher King; Aladdin; and Mrs. Doubtfire, where he showcased his limitless gift for improvisation to bring to life a wide range of characters. And in Good Will Hunting he gave an intense and controlled performance that revealed the true range of his talent.Itzkoff also shows how Williams struggled mightily with addiction and depression – topics he discussed openly while performing and during interviews – and with a debilitating condition at the end of his life that affected him in ways his fans never knew. Drawing on more than a hundred original interviews with family, friends, and colleagues, as well as extensive archival research, Robin is a fresh and original look at a man whose work touched so many lives.

Book Robin Review :



I'm not usually a fan of celebrity biographies, but Robin Williams was something special--a singular talent whose intellect and wit that were off the charts. I may have seen only a handful of his movies and never watched more than a few episodes of Mork and Mindy, but if I saw he was going to be on a talk show, I seldom missed it.This exhaustively researched book,written by NY Times reporter Dave Itzkoff, delves into every aspect of Williams's life, from his lonely but privileged childhood, to his early successes and his later uneven career in films, to his demons, philandering and substance abuse and finally his gut-wrenching suicide after developing Lewy body dementia.In the public eye, Williams was larger than life, but in private he was an insecure little boy, desperate for adulation and attention and willing to do almost anything to get it. His judgment was often flawed, whether cheating on his wives, choosing to make movies that were duds, or descending into addiction at the expense of his family. At the same time, he was brilliant at stand-up and in the right roles, unforgettable on the big screen ("Good Morning, Vietnam," "Dead Poets Society," "Mrs. Doubtfire," and Good Will Hunting," for which he finally won an Academy Award).His career was in decline when he died, but, oh, the legacy he left!Robin is a behemoth of a book--439 pages of text, several more selected work and awards, and over 50 pages of notes.sourcing pretty much everything in the book. (The acknowledgements give you an idea of just how many interviews and how much research was required to produce it/) This is, as the cover copy declares, the definitive biography of Williams, warts and all, and in its own way, it's as unforgettable as its subject.
My concern about Mr. Itzkoff's 'Robin' was that the book would simply be a hagiography, because so little time has passed since Mr. Williams committed suicide. Emotions are likely still raw for many of the people who knew the comic genius when interviewed by the author. Glossing over Mr. Williams's less appealing qualities was a distinct possibility. Fortunately, Mr. Itzkoff shows a great deal of professionalism by giving a balanced portrayal.At 440 pages, the book is more an overview than a deeply in-depth work such as James Kaplan's two-volume biography about Frank Sinatra. I'd imagine that if anyone were to undertake such an exercise about Mr. Williams, a decade or so will have had to pass for a less misty-eyed evaluation. It is understandable. Mr. Itzkoff's portrayal shows the life of a true artist who, as his first wife states, was a stimulus junkie and a brilliant gentle soul. There is a lot to admire about the late Robin Williams and some aspects that are more sad than accusatory. His genius was unique but seemed to come along with some less than desirable traits of self-destruction. The biography covers such topics as his peripatetic childhood, comedy clubs, his rapid rise to stardom, methods behind his improvisation, his three marriages, the various reactions by critics to many of his movies, some details about the creation of his more successful films, the accusations of plagiarism, his relationship with famous friends like Billy Crystal, John Belushi, Christopher Reeves, and Richard Pryor, Comic Relief, becoming a parent, his idol Jonathan Winters, his philanthropy, and the creation of 'Mork & Mindy.' Mr. Williams's more destructive actions such as drug use and infidelities are touched upon but the author mostly avoids giving salacious details. The last thirty-five pages linger upon the reactions of Robin Williams's suicide, the diagnosis of Lewy body dementia, and the conflicts over his estate by his third wife and the Williams children.There is a great deal within 'Robin' that was news to me. Mr. Itzhoff has a nice clear writing style which made the book an enjoyable read. However, while the comic had his ups and downs, the last third of the biography becomes more and more melancholy. If the reader is anything like me, you will come away from 'Robin' with an appreciation of his genius and compassion as well as sad about his less admirable qualities. The humble artist was truly in a league of his own.
