About the Author

Jim Belushi, star of According to Jim and Saturday Night Live alum, has starred in several TV series and feature films during his career. His list of credits includes About Last Night, the K-9 franchise, Taking Care of Business, Oliver Stone’s Salvador, and Gang Related. In addition to performing in David Mamet’s Obie Award-winning play Sexual Perversity in Chicago, he has starred in other acclaimed performances for the stage such as True West and The Pirates of Penzance. He was also a member of Chicago’s famed Second City improvisational comedy troupe. He lives in California.

the K9 franchise?? you mean the movie where he plays supporting actor to a dog, and the sequels no one asked for or noticed? like K-911 (1999) - Tagline: One’s still a little smarter than the other. But after K-911 the public wondered whether Jim still had what it took to make him famous…you know, being the brother of a famous dead comedian. Jim wowed the public, and himself, with K-9: P.I. (2002) - tagline: They’re back to clean up the streets… One mess at a time.

needless to say everyone should buy his book. if he sells enough copies he might, just might, stop making movies where the majority of his lines are in conversation with a canine.

oh James, thanks for the welcome laugh. you truly are an American hero.
