    How I Clawed My Way to the Middle JOHN WOOD Viking | RRP $34.99 | Trade Paperback | 4 August 2020 | Available as an audiobook via Audible A delightful peek behind the curtains at the life of John Wood, one of Australia’s most beloved actors. From working class beginnings in Melbourne through to rubbing shoulders with some of the best and brightest in Australia’s acting scene, John takes the reader on an enchanting jaunt through his childhood to his time on the silver screen. Tales of running money to the head office of Victorian Railways—with gun in tow—or working in the cold bowels of an abattoir provides glimpses into John’s humble origins. Whilst stories of participating in seances and seeing The Beatles live at Festival Hall reveal snippets of his life in Melbourne in a bygone era. John treads the boards of Australia’s most prominent theatres in the plays of our most acclaimed playwrights and directors, Williamson, Bell and Sumner to name but a few, until finally his time on television as familiar faces Michael Rafferty of Rafferty’s Rules and Tom Croydon from Blue Heelers. All of which is threaded with the uncertainty of an actor’s life; surviving on a six dollar a week scholarship at NIDA, being parted from his young family for months at a time due to filming to each lull in work that causes John’s sense of self worth to plummet. ‘On stage is where I feel most alive, Like the man himself, How I Clawed my Way to the Middle is engaged and sure of unpretentious, funny and charming.
