Instruction Book For…Being a Person: Or (Just Feeling Better)

A Book Is Born It was 1962. I was at Paramount filming The Nutty Professor, a labor of love that transcended everything else I had ever done. One day I felt instinctively that there were minor rumblings among my crew. Backbiting and envy are two of the most destructive forces I know of. So I went home that night, sat down and wrote a tome — a small one, but a tome, on the benefits of being a person. I wrote the words in a matter of two hours and had my sketch artist interpret what I wrote in sketches. Within one week I had the little book printed and bound and made up only 200 copies (my crew was a total of 185). I distributed the book to every member of that crew and it made a difference… and I created a small, worthwhile message to all who read it. Jerry Lewis
