Martial Art Masters: Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee was more than a martial artist. He was a philosopher, a filmmaker, a cultural pioneer, and a visionary decades ahead of his time. Martial Art Masters: Bruce Lee reveals the full story of his extraordinary life — from his childhood in Hong Kong and his early film career, to his struggles in Hollywood, his explosive rise to superstardom, and the creation of Jeet Kune Do, one of the most influential martial philosophies in history.

• Bruce Lee’s early years as a child actor and street fighting teenager
• His transformation in America, studying philosophy and building his first schools
• The Long Beach breakthrough that caught Hollywood’s attention
• The Green Hornet era and the racial barriers he refused to accept
