Kiefer Sutherland: The Biography

Kiefer Sutherland has not always led the pampered life of a son of celebrity parents. He has carved his own path, made his own mistakes, as well as some unusual and surprising life decisions along the way. “Kiefer Sutherland: The Biography” traces the actor’s life from his childhood, through his parents’ divorce to his struggle to break into acting and the success he has achieved today. He has appeared in almost 60 films but his role as Jack Bauer in 24 has given him a new, international audience. This biography explores his versatility as an actor, his involvement with the Brat Pack when he became known as a hellraiser, and the years when he turned his back on Hollywood to travel on the rodeo circuit. In this first biography of the notorious actor, the author will explore the relationships in Kiefer’s life: the unique and enduring bond with his father, Donald Sutherland, and his chequered love life including the cancellation of his wedding to Julia Roberts. Bestselling writer Laura Jackson examines closely the many aspects of the actor’s life revealing his true story for the first time.

Customer Review: Just OK…
I was really excited to get this book from the library since I’m a big fan of Kiefer Sutherland. Unfortunately I was really disappointed. I feel like I could have written the book myself! There were very, very few NEW things that I didn’t already know about Kiefer from other articles, TV interviews, etc. I’d only recommend this book to new fans, or ones that don’t really know much about his life already.
Customer Review: Kiefer!
This biography is very well written and deals with the younger Mr Sutherland’s life in a very raw and honest way. Just what you would expect from a man who did his time as any man does and asks no favors. Gritty and real. Read this book.
