Non-Fiction Memoir
In the follow-up to the shattering bestseller Out of
Control: Confessions of an NFL Casualty, former Dallas
Cowboys star Thomas "Hollywood" Henderson shares the story
of his recovery from the abuse of alcohol and other drugs.
Henderson has been clean and sober for over 20 years and has
not had a drink or done any drugs since November 8, 1983. In
Control takes readers from Henderson’s 1986 prison release
to his current life as a community activist, philanthropist,
and distributor of alcohol and drug education films to
prison programs and rehabilitation centers. He also
discusses how his life has changed since March 22, 2000,
when he won a $28 million jackpot in the Texas lottery.
Since 1986, Henderson has been seen or heard by patients
and communities as he has traveled throughout the country
sharing his experiences and offering strength and hope. Over
a million Americans have heard him live or seen him on one
or more of his alcohol and drug education films. The
inspiring In Control, written with popular longtime Dallas
Morning News sportswriter Frank Luksa, focuses on
Henderson’s recovery, atonements, charity, his children and
grandchildren, and the handling of his new-found wealth.
