Reviews

"A loving daughter's intimate memoir and portrait of her father, a man who just happens to be one of the most important American cultural leaders of the 20th century . . . the best glimpse we're likely to get of that man and the maelstrom he moved in unless or until we venture into the Twilight Zone." -James Grady, author of bestselling thrillers, including Six Days of the Condor

"A tender, thoughtful and very personal portrait of American genius Rod Serling." -Alice Hoffman, author of more than thirty works of fiction, and New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Magic

"Filled with anecdotes and self-reflection . . . Serling still casts an outsized shadow." -Variety

"Exploring her deep bond with the creator of The Twilight Zone, the author delves into her father's writing career, his deep commitment to social justice, and her grief following his death . . . A piquant memoir blending lush memories of a remarkable father and adept analysis of his work." -Kirkus Reviews
"As I Knew Him: My Dad, Rod Serling is such a treasure. Not only is it essential reading for Twilight Zone aficionados who think they've read it all, it is at its core, simply a beautifully written memoir . . . Anne Serling paints with her words. She has the soul of her father and her powerful book is a kind of key to unlocking the essence of the show we all worship so fervently." -Chris Alexander, Fangoria
