Publisher Description
There I Go Again is a celebrity memoir like no other, revealing the life of a man whose acting career has been so rich that millions of Americans know his face even while they might not recognize his name.
William Daniels is an enigma—a rare chameleon who has enjoyed massive success both in Hollywood and on Broadway and been embraced by fans of successive generations. Few of his peers inspire the fervor with which buffs celebrate his most iconic roles, among them George Feeny in Boy Meets World, KITT in Knight Rider, Dr. Mark Craig in St. Elsewhere, and John Adams in the play and film 1776.
Daniels guides readers through some of Hollywood’s most cherished productions, offering recollections of entertainment legends including Lauren Bacall, Warren Beatty, Kirk Douglas, Michael Douglas, Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Mike Nichols, Jason Robards, Barbra Streisand, and many more.
Looking back on his seventy-five-plus-year career, Daniels realizes that although he never had the courage to say “no” to being an actor, he backed into stardom. With his wife, actress Bonnie Bartlett, by his side, he came to realize that he wound up exactly where he was supposed to be: on the screen and stage.

There I Go Again
I don't usually read many biographies. I had a thought about watching 1776 again. I saw William as John Adams. The next day I went to NetGalley and there he was standing there. I held my breath and waited to see if I got this book to review. I got it! William started at 2 year old and brings the reader to today. It grips you to see how his family function, or not. He was a Song and Dance artist. He worked with his two younger sisters. I can't believe that he had worked with so many famous people. He doesn't pull a punch! William worked on Broadway. He acted and also worked with directing. He married his wife Bonnie 3 years before I was born. He and Bonnie worked together on St. Elsewhere. I was sad when it was over. I loved to listen to KITT. What a voice! I read about John Adams and I went through an Adams age way before 1776. I watch it over and over. I fell into this book. I hope you will want to, too! William, you are and have been my favorite actor! PS-I like your early photos. I volunteered to read and review this book.
