Show Notes

Michael J Fox, star of the Back to the Future trilogy, was born in 1961, moved to Hollywood aged 18 and while avidly lapping up the customary attention and refreshments, he developed Parkinson’s disease.

He has now authored a memoir describing his experience of the disease alongside his career as an actor.

In this podcast, hear PN editor Phil Smith the book with Fox's neurologist from the Brigham and Women's Hospital, Allan Ropper.
