Publisher's Synopsis
"In 2014, Brent Sverdloff published his first memory-related book about mastering names and faces. Now he's back with this collection of more than 40 interviews with performing arts professionals-actors, singers, musicians, and playwrights-who share their approaches to memorization. Gathered over the course of three years, these interviews offer creative and effective strategies to help anyone improve their memory, on stage and off. The same methods that performers use to get into character can teach us all how to increase our mental agility, be more present, and heighten our awareness of the power of language"--.
