The father of seven children, he lives with his wife, Naomi, and their four sons in Bainbridge Township, Ohio.
"Followers of provocative screenwriter ("Basic Instinct," "Flashdance," "Showgirls") and author ("Hollywood Animal," "American Rhapsody") Eszterhas may do a double-take when they see his entertaining new memoir branded with a cross, and a triple-take when they see he means it... Eszterhas's journey is inspiring and his tough-guy sense of humor remains intact."--"Publishers Weekly""" "Eszterhas writes with his fists...you won't be bored. And you may even be moved."--"New York Times Book Review" "Tells the story of his spiritual conversion and his newfound devotion to God and family, His new book is evidence of Mr. Eszterhas' victory."--"Toledo Blade""" "It is fascinating to hear him wrestle with his decision to remain in the Catholic church...while the memoir is raw at times, it is never short of interesting anecdotes...he is a fantastic writer."--"www.challies.com""" ""
