In this startling candid and poignant memoir, the legendary Emmy Award-winning star of The Young and The Restless, America's #1 soap opera, chronicles his amazing life, from his birth in World War II Germany to his arrival in America to his rise to humanitarian and daytime superstar for the past thirty-five years.
For nearly four decades, fans have welcomed the star of television’s number-one daytime show, The Young and the Restless, into their living rooms. While they’ve come to know and love the suave Victor Newman, few truly know the man behind the character, the supremely talented Eric Braeden. I'll Be Damned is his story—a startling and uplifting true tale of war, deprivation, determination, fame, and social commitment that spans from Nazi Germany to modern Hollywood.
Braeden’s journey from a hospital basement in Kiel to the soundstages of Los Angeles has taught him more about joy, heartbreak, fear, dignity, loss, love, loneliness, exhilaration, courage, persecution, and profound responsibility to the global community than he could have hoped to learn in several lifetimes. Growing up in the years after Germany’s defeat, Braeden knew very little about the atrocities of his parents’ generation, until he arrived in America as a teenager—a discovery that horrified and transformed him. Trying to redress the wrongs of his homeland, he has dedicated his life to humanitarian work—even forming the German American Culture Society—working for decades to show the world that what we share as humans is far more important than what separates us from one another.
Told with openness, candor, humor, heart, and occasional raw vulnerability, I’ll Be Damned reveals a man committed to making the world a better, more loving place. Filled with sixteen pages of photos from his decorated life and career, I’ll Be Damned will be a treasured keepsake for Y&R fans, and is an inspiring testament to the goodness within us all.
A celebrated actor whose most astonishing role is his own life
In this startlingly candid and poignant memoir, the legendary Emmy Award–winning star of The Young and the Restless, America’s #1 soap opera, chronicles his amazing life, from his birth in World War II Germany to his arrival in America to his work as a humanitarian and daytime superstar.
For nearly four decades, fans have come to know and love the suave Victor Newman from The Young and the Restless. Yet few truly know the man behind the character, the supremely talented Eric Braeden. I’ll Be Damned is the story of Eric’s life—an uplifting tale of war, deprivation, determination, fame, and social commitment that spans from Nazi Germany to modern Hollywood. From the theatrical stage to the sets of The Rat Patrol, Titanic, and, of course, The Young and the Restless, among other films and television series, Braeden’s career and journey have taught him invaluable life lessons about joy, heartbreak, fear, love, courage, and profound responsibility to the global community.
Growing up as a young child in the years after Germany’s defeat in World War II, Braeden knew very little about the atrocities of his parents’ generation until he arrived in America—a discovery that horrified and transformed him. Trying to redress the wrongs of his homeland, he has dedicated his life to humanitarian causes, working to show the world that what we share as humans is far more important than what separates us.
Told with openness, humor, heart, and raw vulnerability, I’ll Be Damned reveals a man committed to making the world a better, more loving place, and is an inspiring testament to the goodness within us all.
