The Backstory

For over a decade, actor Corey Maher has worked on big-budget blockbuster movies and Emmy Award-winning television shows, alongside some of Hollywood's most prestigious talent. But after experiencing a devastating accident on set, Corey now faces his most challenging role yet as he is forced to explore the strength and depth of his own character throughout his recovery.In The Backstory, Maher rewinds the reel on fifty years of family, friendship, failure, and show business. From his Midwestern roots - including a near-death encounter with a flying shovel - to haunted houses, heavy metal aspirations and stage fright, this is a book that doesn't pretend to have all the answers. Just some damn good stories.Told with unfiltered honesty and a wicked sense of humor, The Backstory isn't a self-help book on how to make it in Hollywood (thank God). It's a raw look at a life full of wrong turns, hard lessons, and the challenging moments that can pull us forward. Because life doesn't come with a script. Just veiny arms and chest hair.
