An engaging,tremendously written account of the lives of two actors. Ed DeLeo's journey through the acting world was full of mishaps and never reached the success level that he'd hoped for but it is fascinating nonetheless. Al Pacino should feel lucky to have known such a seasoned person as Ed DeLeo.

"As David Sheldon and Joan McCall point out in "When I Knew Al," Ed De Leo entered Al Pacino's life when Al was at an early crossroads bordering on success or failure. I studied acting with Ed. He took great pleasure in his student's successes in the industry, more so than his own. He was a natural born teacher. VEE GENTILE, former student of Ed De Leo and actor ("Two Bits," "Gettysburg").
Powerful and compelling November 21, 2005

This book gives a rare insider look at the life of Al Pacino. The journey this books takes you on shows how the choices people make influence their careers. If you want to see how two people starting off in the same spot can go in completely different directions while still remaining friends, this book is for you!
