What People Are Saying
“In his book Milton uses correspondences to not only teach a masterclass on acting but also to convey the personal struggles and journey the actor takes to understanding. He covers the lost territory of Stella Adler’s and Stanislavsky’s work to lift acting to high artistry through the use of the imagination and blood memory. Everywhere you see the wisdom of Milton’s lifetime work… to understand acting for himself and his students. There is a good deal to get from this endeavor. It’s practical and relatable.”
Mark Ruffalo
“Milton’s book isn’t just filled with incredibly useful technical guidance for performers, you can feel his larger than life personality in every page. He has distilled a lifetime of knowledge and experience working and training with actors into a tool that can be used and applied and lived with as we navigate our never-ending quest to be better.”

“I don’t know anyone with more passion for acting than Milton. He’s spent years in the trenches solving problems for working actors. This book gathers those solutions.”
“Few speak as clearly and passionately about the art and craft of acting as does Milton Justice. He offers his readers a pragmatic philosophy, forged in his long relationship with Stella Adler and tempered with his avid curiosity for new information on Stanislavsky and the elusive art of acting. Filled with wise words, useful advice, inspiration, and humor, Justice’s book is a must-read.”
