Description - Star-crossed by Ron, Ph.D. Austin

In Star-Crossed Ron Austin recounts the remarkable "three acts" of his life. Act I finds him in Hollywood, in love with his young wife -- and with show business. As he becomes a successful screenwriter and TV producer, he works with a galaxy of stars, from Charlie Chaplin to the cast of Charlie's Angels. In Act II Austin grapples with the ups and downs of his career and finds himself walking down a new spiritual path: at the age of fifty, with the support of his Jewish wife, he converts from atheism to Catholicism. In Act III he discusses his current passion -- exploring how Jews and Catholics can find common ground. This book is a candid and compelling look at Austin's wide-ranging life journey, as rich with stories about Hollywood's golden past as it is with ideas about how Christians and Jews can build an enduring relationship in the future. Includes 14 photos
