Officer Clemmons: A Memoir
by François Clemmons
So much more than I was expecting! From his earliest memories of wandering with his Granddaddy Saul and his talking, singing cane; through his uneasy early life as an "uptight, born-again Christian, Midwestern-Southerner, church-singing, sharecropper's son" who was struggling to reconcile all of that with his sexuality; to his sacrificial, ground-breaking role as Officer Clemmons and his discovery, years into the relationship, of what a dear and constant mentor he had found in Fred Rogers; to his award-winning musical endeavors... All told with a charmingly real and lively tone. Thank you, François Clemmons, for using your voice in this way.
