"Actor and director Matheson shares his fascinating life story and experience of 'film school boot camp' in this entertaining memoir. . . . His story is peppered with lively tales about being beaten up every night on stage by a ruthless Daniel Stern, dating supermodel Twiggy, failing as a Hollywood mogul in the 1980s, and discovering a passion for directing television. . . . Matheson is honest and self-effacing when discussing his personal life, and he provides valuable advice for those trying to get into the business. Yes, he does discuss John Belushi."--Library Journal
"What a charming and revealing trip through the years of ups and downs in a gifted American actor's career!

Bravo, Mr. Matheson, and thank you for sharing."--Robyn Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"[Tim Matheson is] extremely likable, and his memoir is a pure delight."--Booklist
"Tim was a cast, crew, and audience favorite on The West Wing. He's been at the center of some of America's most iconic film and television. Damn Glad to Meet You is a fascinating, hilarious, and often very moving inside look at an extraordinary career."--Aaron Sorkin
"As classics like Julia Phillips's You'll Never Eat Lunch in This Town Again and Charles Grodin's It Would Be So Nice If You Weren't Here have proved, the best Hollywood memoirs are written by those who have seen both sides of what can be a profoundly exhilarating and sadistically brutal industry. Add to that pile Tim Matheson's Damn Glad to Meet You, which spares no sacred cows. The actor and director makes a marvelous narrative out of his career which spanned roles in everything from Leave It to Beaver to Animal House to The West Wing. Wittily delivered in wry first person, Damn Glad to Meet You is a hilariously dishy meditation on the long, strange life of a midlevel star."--Wall Street Journal
"I loved reading Tim's book. Damn Glad to Meet You gives the reader such a wonderful behind the scenes snapshot of the world of show business from the 1950's right up til now."--Cynthia Nixon
