Alec Baldwin, who hosted “Saturday Night Live” for a record 17th time last night, will sign copies of his memoir, “Nevertheless,” April 5 at 6 p.m. at the Bookends bookstore in Ridgewood.
Each person attending must buy at least one book; visit book-ends.com for information.
The book will be published on April 4 by HarperCollins. According to the book’s page on harpercollins.com, Baldwin “chronicles the highs and lows of his life” in the book.
In the book, the description continues, “Baldwin transcends his public persona, making public facets of his life he has long kept private. In this honest, affecting memoir, he introduces us to the Long Island child who felt burdened by his family’s financial strains and his parents’ unhappy marriage; the Washington, DC, college student gearing up for a career in politics; the self-named “Love Taxi” who helped friends solve their romantic problems while neglecting his own; the young soap actor learning from giants of the theatre; the addict drawn to drugs and alcohol who struggles with sobriety; the husband and father who acknowledges his failings and battles to overcome them; and the consummate professional for whom the work is everything.”
