(REAL NAME)
As I write this I have just learned that David Carradine has died.
Endless Highway is his autobiography, extremely well written and frank recounting of a life lived in show business, from the Beat Generation to end of the 20th Century.
Unflinchingly he tells of the valleys and peaks of his life and career. Second oldest son (half brother Bruce was older) of John Carradine, a man who seemily loved to sire children, but was a bit short on the "raising" them end. Older brother Bruce and David were consigned to an orphanage at one point, when one of the elder Carradine's several marriages ended in divorce. David--a child himself--was often left to virtually raise his brothers and half brothers.
He started out as a dancer, and it was on that talent that he was cast as Kaichang Caine in the legendary "Kung Fu" series. His experience in what would be his iconic role, is recounted in this book and is fascinating of itself. But this autobiography is worth reading for the fullness of his life--the tragedy as well as triumph, and as a sobering glimpse into what being the child of a Hollywood legend was really like.
He was multi-talented, a fixture in film, TV and stage for several decades. Rest in peace, David. The world isn't going to be the same without you in it.
