In 1970, after a brief acting career on Broadway and a few spots on various television shows, David Cassidy was catapulted to fame with the success of The Partridge Family. Almost overnight, the 20-year-old reached the pinnacle of teen idol fame as his records sold millions of copies the world over. In this brutally frank autobiography, Cassidy gives a firsthand account of those mind-blowing days of stardom in which being David Cassidy was subjugated to being Keith Partridge. His accounts of sex and excessive drug use explode the myth of the squeaky-clean Cassidy, and tell the true story of how an exhausting tour schedule quickly took its toll. This story reveals how to keep on living and loving when the fickle fans fall away.

In the autumn of 1970, after a brief acting career on Broadway and with various guest appearances on American TV shows, The Partridge Family catapulted David Cassidy to fame. Aged just 20, his face was on the cover of every teenage magazine. He became an international pop star. In 1974, his exhausting schedule took its toll on the quality of his life. David retired but has, since the 1990s, regularly appeared in and produced musicals in the States, and toured live - with Donny Osmond in particular - to appreciative audiences, particularly in the UK. He is happily married and has two children.
