N2  - Drawing upon a mountain of original research - interviews with family and friends, court transcripts, unpublished journals, screenplay drafts - Scott Saul traces Pryor's rough journey to the heights of fame: from his heartbreaking childhood, his trials in the Army, and his apprentice days in Greenwich Village to his soul-searching interlude in Berkeley and his ascent in the 'New Hollywood' of the 1970s
