Individual actors & performers; Memoirs

In this revealing, humorous, and introspective memoir, Cryer offers readers a front-row seat as he reminisces about his life and experiences in showbiz over the past thirty years.

If it can happen in show business, it's happened to Jon Cryer.

Now he's opening up and sharing his behind-the-scenes stories in a warmly endearing, sharply observed, and frankly funny look at life in Hollywood.

In 1986, Jon Cryer won over America as Molly Ringwald's loyal and lovable best friend, Duckie, in Pretty in Pink - a role that set the tone for his three-decades-long career in Hollywood.

He went on to establish himself as one of the most talented comedic actors in the business, ultimately culminating in his award-winning turn as Alan Harper on the massively popular sitcom Two and a Half Men.

Now Cryer charts his extraordinary journey, illuminating his many triumphs and some missteps along the way. Filled with exclusive behind-the-scenes anecdotes and his experiences with some of the biggest and most provocative names in the business, including Charlie Sheen, John Hughes, Molly Ringwald, Demi Moore, and Christopher Reeve, Cryer offers his own endearing perspective on Hollywood, the business at large, and the art of acting.

This revealing, humorous, and introspective memoir is a front-row seat to Jon's life and experiences in showbiz over the past thirty years.

Reviews for So That Happened: A Memoir

Completely entertaining. Cryer addresses Charlie Sheen s fall from grace to the reader s satisfaction, but the real gems are the insightful, self-deprecating tales from Cryer s own career, from Pretty in Pink to Two and a Half Men s twelve-year-run. GQ A wry, self-deprecating and funny memoir that covers [Cryer s] thirty-five-year career. The Hollywood Reporter
