Roger Ebert: My Fairy Grandfather

Many people have role models, many people have icons that they look up too. Mine....Is Roger Ebert. Roger's Biography actually came out on September 13th, and I finished the 430 page book in Less than two days. I think that in order to fully understand someone, you have to understand their life, their loved ones, and their battles. Ebert has struggled with Cancer, Alcoholism, and hate from fans, and even hatred just because he does not look like the "Average Joe."

My future career will be as a Film Critic, I am positive. Roger inspired me to do this, and that I will do. I read his website at Chicago Sun-Times every day, and always take notes on his aspects of critiquing a film. If you have not already, I desperately encourage you to  read it, or at least go to his website to search his reviews on movies you have seen (http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/)

So, In another World, I see Roger as being my Grandfather, and maybe we can all strive to be a little like Roger everyday.
