Mary Lynn Rajskub Looks Back at Life & Career In New Book

WDCB’s Gary Zidek catches up with actor & comedian Mary Lynn Rajskub to talk about her new book, FAMEISH.

LISTEN

“It’s a mixture of that high-low, that chapter about me waiting tables and my first audition, so you get that along with the juicy celeb anecdotes. That’s the idea behind it, (the book covers) these mundane, everyday life trials and tribulations that everybody goes through, sprinkled with the oddness of being on a hugely, successful television show for 8 years.” - Mary Lynn Rajskub talking about her approach to her new book, FAMEISH.
