Michael J. Fox On His New Book: Advice To Graduates From A High School Dropout (VIDEO)


First Posted: 06/15/10 06:12 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 05:10 PM ET

Michael J. Fox dropped out of high school, but he's still able to offer advice to new graduates in his recent book, "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Future." In it, Fox talks about his life experiences and the movies and TV shows that he worked on throughout his young adulthood, and how they provided the education he missed out on by dropping out of school.

On "Good Morning America" today, Fox talked about the book and his experiences, including his acting, his political involvement, and his struggle with Parkinson's.

You can read an excerpt from "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Future" at the "Good Morning America" website.

Thoughtful and well-spoken, and accepting of his condition to the point of inverting it, making something positive come of it. A shining example of humanity.

Isn't anyone curious as to why his symtoms subsided whille he was in Bhutan?
It would be interesting to see if another Parkinson's sufferer reacted the same way.
