The Answer Is . . . Reflections On My Life

For over three decades, Alex Trebek had resisted countless appeals to write a book about his life. Yet he was moved so much by all the goodwill, he felt compelled to finally share his story. 

The Answer Is ... uses a novel structure inspired by Jeopardy!, with each chapter title in the form of a question, and features dozens of never-before-seen photos that candidly capture Trebek over the years.  A wise, charming, and inspiring book is further evidence why Trebek has long been considered one of the most beloved and respected figures in entertainment.

“[H]ow did this French Canadian son of a Ukrainian immigrant become the authoritative voice of American knowledge?  Trebek’s charming memoir, The Answer Is ..., offers these answers, phrased, of course, in the form of a question.” -- The A.V. Club
