  <default-description>Dust Jacket Description: Baby Boy Fisher was raised in institutions from the moment of his birth in prison to a single mother.  He ultimately came to live with a foster family, where he endured near-constant verbal and physical abuse.  In his mid-teens he escaped and enlisted in the navy, where he became a man of the world, raised by the family he created for himself.

&quot;Finding Fish&quot; shows how, out of this unlikely mix of deprivation and hope, an artist was born--first as the child who painted the feelings his words dared not speak, then as a poet and storyteller who would eventually become one of Hollywood's most sought-after screenwriters.

A tumultuous and ultimately gratifying tale of self-discovery written in Fisher's gritty yet melodic literary voice, &quot;Finding Fish&quot; is an unforgettable reading experience.</default-description>
