John Sessions in His Own Words

- A Memoir of a 45-Year Friendship

Bag om John Sessions in His Own Words

John Sessions, who died in 2020, was the greatest improvisational comedian of his generation in the UK. He was also a brilliant impressionist and mimic, an accomplished actor and creative writer, and the possessor of a phenomenal memory for facts. He appeared in about 150 films and TV shows, along with many of the biggest stars of the age. No one who met him could fail to remember him; many went away feeling that they had just encountered the funniest person in the world. Like many comedians, John had a dark, self-destructive side. But before the end of his life he managed to defeat the demons that had long assailed him by a complete transformation of his lifestyle. This memoir by a close friend on the other side of the Atlantic brings John back to life through 45 years of memories and correspondence.
