Description
John Hodgman's latest book offers an affecting and hilarious meditation on fame and prestige, as seen through the lens of his experiences with an airline loyalty program.
A former literary agent turned writer, Hodgman recounts how he transitioned to a career in front of the camera, including his unexpected appearances on The Daily Show. He shares stories about navigating the strange world of celebrity, from preparing for nude scenes to attending Hollywood parties.
Partly humorous and partly heartfelt, Medallion Status is a thoughtful examination of status, fame, and identity - and how we cope with the reality of losing our privileged positions.
