Description

This memoir provides a unique glimpse into the character trails from some iconic TV personas of the 1970's and 1980's. Some of these include Jim Rockford from The Rockford Files, Archie Bunker from All in the Family, Jack Tripper from Three's Company, and Alex P. Keaton from Family Ties. I describe how these traits have infiltrated my personality through many of my own personal stories and how the combination of these traits is important to achieving a more balanced life.

For those of you either old enough to remember these shows or who have gone back and watched streaming reruns, maybe this will be a reminiscing reminder of the brilliance of these characters. For those of you who have never even heard of these shows, maybe this will be a spark to get you to watch one or two of them. But for all of you, it is an opportunity to recollect what things in your life have helped form your personality. Maybe it wasn't TV, but music, or art, or something else? And how have you used these to shape your life?
