Resumen del Editor

You see the word, picture perfect, yet it sticks to the back of your throat. Your mouth shutters. Your face contorts. Your body trembles as your eyes roll back. A jarring, jackhammer sound gargles out of the back of your mouth. You push with all your might, but you can't get the word out. The judging eyes stare back at you.

These are the wounding and humiliating trials that 60 million stutterers worldwide endure each and everyday - and Scott Damian was one of them.

As a child, Scott longed to be heard. As hard as he tried, Scott couldn't enunciate that first word, that first letter, even that first sound. Labeled as "different" by schoolmates, family and teachers alike, Scott lived a lonely childhood and adolescence. For this kid growing up the suburbs of New Orleans, there was no hope, no future, and no salvation. Convinced that he would be a stutterer forever, all Scott could rely on was his silence...and his passion for storytelling.

Fast-forward years later, Scott is a stutter-free adult. He has forged ahead through years of discouragement, disasters, and victories to be become a successful Los Angeles-based actor, writer, director, and producer. He now writes and speaks the words that moves hearts, arouses emotions, and helps others find their voice.

How this stuttering boy became an articulate artist, and his unrelenting journey to find his voice is the heart and soul of this unforgettable memoir, Voice: A Stutterer's Odyssey. Spoken in his own voice, fluently, Scott Damian will guide the listener into a universal story of overcoming insurmountable odds and how suffering and facing one's fears can bring the greatest rewards.
