Peter O'Toole - Loitering With Intent: The Child Paperback Book (1992)

DESCRIPTION
This is Peter O`Toole`s account of his early life, a childhood framed by " Captain Pat" O`Toole, itinerant bookmaker, and Constance Jane Eliot Ferguson. In all that he writes of the period, O`Toole reveals his deep understanding of the absurd, both comic and chilling, and how he touches on the tragic - most notably in his studies of Hitler and the effect the Fuhrer has had on his life. O`Toole`s memories lead readers in leaps through time as we read of his early years and the war, National Service in the Navy, his short-lived career as a cub reporter and the almost accidental audition at RADA that launched his career. Peter O`Toole was born in 1932. After working on provincial newspapers, serving in the Navy, and attending RADA, he made his professional acting debut in 1955 at the Theatre Royal, Bristol. A Commander of the Order of Arts and Letters, an honour awarded to him in 1989 by the Republic of France, Peter O`Toole lives in London.
