Product Description
In a career spanning more than thirty years, Patrick Swayze has made a name for himself on the stage, the screen, and television. Known for his versatility, passion and fearlessness, he's become one of our most beloved actors.

But in February 2008, Patrick announced he had been diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer. Always a fighter, he refused to let the disease bring him to his knees, and his bravery has inspired both his legion of fans and cancer patients everywhere. Yet this memoir, written with wisdom and heart, recounts much more than his bout with cancer. In vivid detail, Patrick describes his Texas upbringing, his personal struggles, his rise to fame with North and South, his commercial breakthroughs in Dirty Dancing and Ghost, and the soul mate who's stood by his side through it all: his wife, writer and director Lisa Niemi.

A behind-the-scenes look at a Hollywood life and a remarkable love, this memoir is both entertainment and inspiration. Patrick and Lisa's marriage is a journey of two lives intertwined and lived as one--throughout their years in Hollywood and at home on their working ranch outside Los Angeles, and culminating in the hope and wisdom they've imparted to all who know them. This book will open the door for families, individuals, and husbands and wives to grow, bond and discover entirely new levels of love and sharing, proving that life shouldn't be lived as a series of endings, but rather as the beginning of greater strength and love. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Dirty Dancer
Patrick Swayze was taken way too soon from this world.He had such a gentle soul and shared so many sides of himself with the world.This is a 'must read' book for everyone.

5-0 out of 5 stars Patrick Swayze and Lisa Niemi
It is all about Patrick's life from high school and how much he wanted to dance dispite a serious injury to his knee. The story goes on to tell us about his life with Lisa. His tragic death and the way he handled himself was a real testimony of his faith.

5-0 out of 5 stars This was a moving, behind-the-scenes look at Swayze's career and, also, about his love for his wife Lia.
Heard the CD version of THE TIME OF MY LIFE, written and read by both Patrick Swayze and Lia Niemi.

This was a moving, behind-the-scenes look at Swayze's career and, also, about his love for his wife Lia. It was also about what it's like to find out that you have pancreatic cancer.

I liked learning about his early upbringing, as well as his rise to fame with NORTH AND SOUTH that was followed by commercial success with DIRTY DANCING AND GHOST . . . though not as big a hit, his story about how he had to prepare for TO WONG FOO THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, JULIE NEWMAR had me laughing out loud.

The book runs through his last effort, THE BEAST, a TV show that he somehow managed to complete despite his illness . . . I'm glad that it received good reviews.

This is one title that you'll want to listen to, as opposed to read, just to listen to Swayze's voice one more time.

5-0 out of 5 stars great read
love the book, always enjoy reading about someones life. I never knew all the movies that Patrick Swayze was in. He and his wife hung in together thru it all and that is so great!! Both very strong people!! He died so young but in reading the book, you learn he never gives up a fight when he wants to reach a goal.

5-0 out of 5 stars great!
I received the book shortly after I got it - read it - loved it! ... Read more

Product Description
A heartwarming, in-depth portrait of the beloved star whose sensational performances in Dirty Dancing and Ghost seduced a generation, and whose courage in the face of illness captivated millions

For almost thirty years, Patrick Swayze has been an American icon of masculinity and sex appeal, strong but sensitive, romantic yet dangerous.

In this intimate and revealing biography, New York Times bestselling author Wendy Leigh shares the inspiring untold story of Patrick's incredible life: his show business childhood, his fairy-tale love affair with wife Lisa Niemi, his catapult into alcoholism after his father's untimely death, the daredevil exploits that almost killed him, and his courageous fight against pancreatic cancer, a fight that has off-ered hope and encouragement to others grap-pling with similar life-threatening illnesses.

Ever since the steamy low-budget film Dirty Dancing skyrocketed Patrick to fame and cemented his place in the hearts of audiences around the world, he has been one of our most cherished public figures. Based on interviews with countless sources who have never spoken about Patrick before -- from the Texas beauty who shared his first kiss, to the woman he almost married, to the manager who worked closely with him from his teen idol days until his romantic tour de force in Ghost -- and many more, Leigh unveils surprising details about the charismatic actor's life on- and off-screen. Beginning with his training as a dancer with his choreographer mother and spanning his remarkable -- and at times challenging -- career, this groundbreaking biography of the un-forgettable entertainer is the mesmerizing, enduring, and definitive story of a man who captured our hearts. ...

As a huge Patrick Swayze fan, this book is awesome. I would recommend it to anyone as it gives insite into his life.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Different Outlook
This book helped me to see a different side of Patrick Swayze.I was told by someone that they had met him and he was a snob.Quite contrary to what I just read, and I, like so many others, enjoyed watching him perform.Tender hearted, hard working and loved his parents and siblings dearly.He was so devoted to his wife.There were hard times, but he rose above them and continued on.This was a great read and I'm so glad I bought it.Highly recommend to anyone who likes Patrick Swayze!

5-0 out of 5 stars Patrick Swayze One Last Dance
I truly enjoyed reading about Patrick's experience's both in growing up and dancing
He was a really great dancer and a nice person. He will be missed by all.

5-0 out of 5 stars One Last Dance
This is a good book and I enjoyed it but it doesn't compare to the biography that he and his wife Lisa wrote "The Time of My Life.The two books together tells a great deal about his and Lisa's life together.HE WAS A PERSON NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN by any of us.

1-0 out of 5 stars Do not waste your money
I could not figure out for many pages why I found this book so distasteful.Then I realized: I assumed this was a biography in which the person being written about had actually participated in the process! Instead this is nothing more than a fangirl book with interviews culled from a few lesser players in Swayze's life and a heavy reliance on past interviews and articles.This book is a huge disappoint with an excessive use of pop culture similes that are grossly out of place.Skip this book and buy the autobiography instead.If you are a Swayze fan, you have probably already read the information in this book. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Time of My Life
Quick shipping and brand new audio book! The story is awesome - read by Patrick and Lisa...I hung on every word they said - I laughed and cried. Patrick is and will be missed. And I wish the best for Lisa!

5-0 out of 5 stars Swayze and Niemi's Last Dance
This CD package has got to be one of the smartest things anyone would ever do for not only does it enable ALL people, blind alike, to experience Swayze's and Niemi's fine book but it lends a most special flavour, considering the Authors themselves are the narrators, each relating their own stories.

It is a tender, loving, and most touching account of Patrick Swayze's and Lisa Niemi's life. It could also very clearly be the life of anyone else involved in the Arts, really. In short, 'The Time Of My Life' is definitely a 'Must Have' for everyone, in today's day and age. This CD box set's contents reminds us all that life, more often than not, comes with hard knocks but that hope is never far away when one has courage, true grit and determination. It is an inspiring work and a great legacy. Bravo (bis) to both Swayze and Niemi on this one! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars So many things unknown until reading
A compelling reading.So many things I had never known about Mr. Swayze were in this book.It was written from the heart and touched my heart.Well writtenand actually funny at times.I have not read a book that I truly enjoyed in a very long time.I had difficulty putting this book down, and wanted to keep reading when I was done.My hat is off to this wonderful man and his beautiful wife.May his memory live forever.

5-0 out of 5 stars Patrick Swayze biography by Mitchell Krugel
This book is a must for any Patrick Swayze super fan.Krugel was obviously a big fan when he wrote it. Of course, the book was written long ago and Patrick has done a lot of movies since then. I am a member of his international fan club and have met him three times. He's a lovely man. I know a lot about his life in the last 10 years but not as much pre-1990. That's why I wanted the book and am glad I found it.

5-0 out of 5 stars A poor return for loyalty
A moving and well told memoir though a surprising and disappointing gift to be given by my colleagues after putting in 23 years of hard work at that company. ... Read more

Excerpt: Fred Astaire (May 10, 1899 June 22, 1987), born Frederick Austerlitz, was an American film and Broadway stage dancer, choreographer, singer and actor. His stage and subsequent film career spanned a total of 76 years, during which he made 31 musical films. He was named the fifth Greatest Male Star of All Time by the American Film Institute. He is particularly associated with Ginger Rogers, with whom he made ten films. According to another major innovator in filmed dance, Gene Kelly, "The history of dance on film begins with Astaire." Beyond film and television, many classical dancers and choreographers, Rudolf Nureyev, Michael Jackson, Mikhail Baryshnikov, and Jerome Robbins among them, also acknowledged his importance and influence. Fred and Adele Astaire, c.1906Astaire was born in Omaha, Nebraska, the son of Johanna "Ann" (née Geilus) and Frederic "Fritz" Austerlitz (born September 8, 1868, as Friedrich Emanuel Austerlitz). Astaire's mother was born in the United States to Lutheran German immigrants from East Prussia and Alsace, while Astaire's father was born in Linz, Austria, to Jewish parents who had converted to Catholicism. After arriving in New York City at age 24 on October 26, 1892, and being processed at Ellis Island, Astaire's father, hoping to find work in his brewing trade, moved to Omaha, Ne...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=64962 ...

September 1987 in Houston, Texas) ist eine US-amerikanische Sängerin, Schauspielerin und Unternehmerin. Ihren Durchbruch verdankt sie der Disney-Channel-Serie Lizzie McGuire. Sie wohnt in Beverly Hills. Hilary Erhard Duff ist die Tochter der Managerin Susan Duff geborene Cobb, die auch ihre Managerin ist, und deren Ex-Mann Robert („Bob") Erhard Duff, der Partner in einer Kette von Convenience Shops ist. Duff hat eine rund zweieinhalb Jahre ältere Schwester namens Haylie, die ebenfalls Schauspielerin und Sängerin ist. Ihre Eltern ließen sich Ende 2007 scheiden. Duff war von 2001 bis 2002 mit Aaron Carter, von 2004 bis 2006 mit dem Frontmann der Band Good Charlotte, Joel Madden, zusammen. Seit dem 14. August 2010 ist sie mit dem kanadischen Eishockeyspieler Mike Comrie verheiratet. Die Trauung fand in Santa Barbara, Kalifornien statt. Hilary Duff startete ihre Karriere im Alter von sechs Jahren, als sie beim Cechetti Ballet tanzte. Später filmte sie diverse Fernsehwerbespots, und dies trotz eines angeborenen Sprachfehlers - sie konnte das „R" nicht aussprechen. Es klappte nur beim Singen, wie ihre Chorlehrerin bemerkte. Ihre erste Hauptrolle bekam sie im Jahr 1998 in dem Film Casper trifft Wendy. In den Jahren 2001 und 2002 spielte sie die Hauptrolle in der Disney Channel-Serie Lizzie McGuire. Durch diese Serie erlangte sie allgemeine Bekanntheit und bewies darin zudem ihr Gesangstalent. Sie sang unter anderem das Lied I Can't...http://booksllc.net/?l=de&id=330743 ... Read more
