Actor, comedian and writer Roy Wood Jr. just released a new book, “The Man of Many Fathers: Life Lessons Disguised as a Memoir.” He writes about his experience growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, losing his dad as a teenager, and all the lessons he learned from various father figures throughout his career. In large part, the book is a letter to his own son, and the stories he hopes to share with him as he gets older.
Roy Wood Jr. shares more on his decision to write a book and the chapters of his life he chose to explore.
