Born Standing Up Reviews
Took an audio snippet from Steve Martin's book, Born Standing Up, and put visuals to it like The Kid Stays in the Picture. Born Standing Up is, in his own words, the story of 'why I did stand-up and why I walked away'. At age 10 Martin started his career at Disneyland, selling guidebooks in the newly opened theme park. Born Standing Up is a superb testament to the sheer tenacity, focus, and daring of one of the greatest and most iconoclastic comedians of all time.
