Synopsis

The Unauthorized Biography of Tom Hanks

Tom Hanks is one of America’s most beloved actors. From Captain Phillips to Sheriff Woody, from a man who falls in love with a mermaid to a boy trapped inside of an adult’s body, from a modern-day widower to a World War II infantry captain, from Walt Disney to Santa Claus, these roles demonstrate Hanks’s unusual gift of creating a grounded, emotional center for a film and involving the audience in the most unlikely events. He is our “everyman” and his talent has contributed to more than three decades of unforgettable films.

In this convenient biography, James Diamond follows Hanks from an awkward boy to a global superstar. We see his traumas, and how he overcame them to become one of America’s most trusted men; we see his career struggles, and how he learned from them to become one of Hollywood’s most powerful figures. Above all, we see afresh the magic that Hanks invariably brings to the screen: his humor, his wisdom, and his heart.
