From his days as "Easy Reader" on The Electric Company to his Oscar-winning turn in Million Dollar Baby and beyond, Freeman seemed destined for stardom at an early age before nearly throwing it all away. With interviews from family, friends, and contemporaries, we tell the story of this son of an alcoholic barber who began receiving accolades at the age of 12, before making the shocking decision to quit acting and become an Air Force mechanic.
