Kin Howard Johnson ran away to join the circus in 1974 as a fan, friend, and stalker (not in that order). He lived on location with Monty Python in Tunisia during the filming of "Life of Brian, "where he won the hearts of the zany Brits after serving as a double for the taller Pythons, then followed it up with an award-winning portrayal of the"Pantomime Goose" in "Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl. "He is the author of three previous books on Monty Python, "The first 200 Years of Monty Python, And Now for Something Completely Trivial, "and "Life (Before And) After Monty Python, "as well as "Truth in Comedy, "an improvisational manual cowritten with Del Close and Charna Halpern. He lives outside Chicago with wife Laurie Bradach and son Morgon.
"A wonderful, brilliant, incisive, transcendental, and mystical
work, except for the bits about Terry Gilliam. And Eric Idle. And
the rather uninteresting and unnecessary details about Michael
Jones and Terry Palin. And perhaps it would have been even better
had it gone on less about Graham Chapman. The rest is superb."
--"John Cleese"
"A book to make you laugh or cry (depending on whether you tear out
the pages and tickle your feet with them or roll them up tightly
into thin cylindrical rolls and poke yourself in the eye)."
--"Terry Jones"
"There's really nothing an agnostic can't do if he really doesn't
know whether he believes in anything or not." --"Graham Chapman"
