The Escape Artist - Ian Jarvis

Jarvis, Ian: - Ian Jarvis has multiple bios that include budding scholar, international criminal, professional actor, fashion designer, corporate executive, and author. The one most relevant to his memoir is this: If you read his IMDB profile, you see a successful actor-a guy whose face you've seen in TV shows, mostly the bad guy. So what? The backstory. A nice Jewish boy from New Jersey quits Georgetown University in his junior year and crosses the country in a Chevy truck. He does some plum work as a drug dealer, escapes half a dozen FBI agents at an airport, and lives eight years as a federal fugitive in Paris, London, Ibiza, Corsica, and Morocco. Turning thirty, he decides to return to the US, face the mess he left behind, and find a way back on the rails of the American dream. The acting he got paid for came after that.
