Nancy Cartwright, the ultimate Simpsons insider, has given voice to the boy immediately recognizable as none other than Bart Simpson for more than 30 years. The Simpsons is the longest running scripted show of all time. In this audio memoir, Nancy traces The Simpsons' rapid rise to wild popularity, offers hilarious anecdotes about cast members and guest stars, and reveals what it’s like to be at the center of an American institution - one that reinvented the sitcom, rocked the networks to the core, and forever changed the face of television.

Enhanced with multiple audio clips featuring celebrity cameos on The Simpsons, I’m Still a 10-Year-Old Boy is uniquely suited to the audio experience.

Audio cameos included are by Danny DeVito, Elizabeth Taylor, Mickey Rooney, Meryl Streep, Kirk Douglas, J.K. Simmons, and Beverly D’Angelo as well as Simpsons main characters.

In I’m Still a 10-Year Old Boy, Cartwright also offers listeners lessons that have contributed to her success as one of the most iconic voice-over actresses including:

·  Do What You Love - if you aren’t making a living by doing what you love, at least do what you like and still do what you love…somehow, somewhere.

·  Be a Professional - A professional, no matter what field, finds out what is needed and wanted. But more importantly, they are the ones who not only get it done, but get it done better than expected.

·  Hitch Your Wagon to a Winner - Whether you are an artist, a contractor, a salesman, a homemaker, or whatever, seek out those around you who are making a better world.

·  Surround Yourself with People Who Love You and Believe in Your Dreams-Do a little “spring cleaning” every now and then. Do I feel better when they are in my company, or do I feel worse? If I feel worse, adios, amigo. If I feel better, they get lunch on me! End of story.

·  Trust Your Instincts—You Are Right - You are the most competent captain for your own ship. Steer well, my friend.

·  You Are Responsible For The Condition You Are In—Good or Bad - You CAN CHANGE your situation and the way you are. And you wanna know how you do that? MAKE THE DECISION TO CHANGE.

Created in 1989 by Matt Groening, The Simpsons is long-running (more than 30 years strong, with 706 episodes) and remains a beloved satirical depiction of American life, epitomized by the Simpson family, consisting of Homer, Marge, Lisa, Maggie, and - of course - mischievous, rebellious, irreverent Bart. It continues to offer a biting parody of American culture, society, and television as well as the human condition itself.

Nancy Cartwright has voiced Bart Simpson since a version of The Simpsons first appeared on The Tracey Ullman Show in 1987.

I'm Still A 10-Year-Old Boy is available for pre-order on Audible.
