This month's personal development book selection is “The Answer Is…:Reflections on my Life” by Alex Trebek.
The host of Jeopardy! for over three decades, Alex Trebek showed up in the house of millions five nights a week. He resisted many offers to write about his life, but after being diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer, he finally agreed to share his story, and this book was born.
Considered one of the most beloved and respected figures in entertainment, you'll learn about his life and philosophies as you read through his story. Enjoy!
