Ken Tyrell The Authorised Biography Book

I have never been a big Sellers fan, thinking he was over the top most of the time, but he was good in some roles, and was gifted at impersonations and characterizations. As a member of the Goon radio show, he and his buddies were a great influence on British Humor, as evidenced by the Monty Python group, the Beatles, Richard Lester's movies, and perhaps on American humortoo such as the Laugh-In show. Peter Sellers as a person, though, seemed to be an unhappy, difficult person. He suffered from bipolar disorder, but worse, seemed to lack a sense of self. He was always buying things; cars, stereo equipment, cameras, to fill the void. Though he had a mother who doted on him, he was a terrible parent himself, even physically abusing his small children. He had four wives, none of which he treated well, and was always cheating on them. I really do not like this man though recognizing his achievements as a performer.
