<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In a memoir and a primer for living the good life all rolled into one, this beloved TV icon shares the secrets to success and happiness as he has learned them from his innumerable celebrity encounters, friendships, and of course, from his relationship with his loving wife and family.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>In this entertaining memoir, the irrepressible Reege - consummate talk show host, man about town, loving husband, father, and yes, obsessive sports fan-looks back at his years in show business. </strong></p><p>One of the most popular television and cultural icons ever, Regis Philbin entertained television audiences for more than fifty years--as a beloved morning-show host (<em>Live with Regis and Kelly</em>), a nighttime game-show host (<em>Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?</em>) and also as a fixture on national and local late-night talk shows. The irrepressible "Reege" has regaled television audiences with his stories for more than half a century, but he's saved the most hilarious, surprising, heartfelt, and inspiring tales for <em>How I Got This Way</em>. Both a fascinating show business memoir and a delightful primer for living the good life rolled into one, <em>How I Got This Way</em> is Reege being Reege, just the way we love him, as he shares the secrets to success and happiness that he has learned from his innumerable celebrity encounters, his close, personal friendships, and, of course, his relationship with his loving wife and family.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><em><p>Sure, he's an excitable guy. Sure, he loves to complain. But Regis Philbin loves life ...</p></em><p>And after five decades in show business--and nearly 17,000 unforgettable hours on television--he has a lifetime's worth of stories to tell. In this entertaining memoir, the irrepressible Reege--consummate talk-show host, man-about-town, loving husband, father, and yes, obsessive sports fan--looks back at his years in show business. <em>How I Got This Way</em> is filled with stories of lessons learned--and elbows rubbed--with extraordinary, and often unsuspecting, teachers, including David Letterman, Donald Trump, George Clooney, Howard Stern, and, of course, longtime cohosts Kathie Lee Gifford and Kelly Pippa Ripa.</p><p>Whether he's revealing what really drove him bonkers on the set of <em>Seinfeld</em>, how he survived the first known bomb scare on live TV, what Jack Nicholson said about his beautiful leading ladies during their guys' night out together, or poignant memories of his last moments with his idol and dear friend, Jack Paar, Regis packs every page with his signature heart, wit, dynamic energy, and gratitude for everything life has brought him.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Essential for all popular collections.--<em>Library Journal</em><br><br>Others have come and gone, but the breezy Philbin is still here. What you see on TV is what you get in this book. Fans will love it.--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br>
