"Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and advertise!"
These words of fatherly advice helped shape Ted Turner's remarkable life, but they only begin to explain the colorful, energetic, and unique style that has made him a living legend. In addition to being one of the richest men in the world and the largest land owner in the United States, Ted revolutionized the television business with the creation of TBS and CNN. Along the way, he became a champion sailor who won the America's Cup, and, as owner of the Altanta Braves, he took home a World Series trophy in 1995.
An innovative entrepreneur, outspoken nonconformist, and groundbreaking philanthropist, Ted, now for the first time reveals his personal story. From his difficult childhood to the successful launch of his media empire to the catastrophic AOL/Time Warner deal, he takes the reader along on a wild and sometimes bumpy ride.
You'll hear Ted's personal take on how we can save the world...share his experiences in the dugout on the day when he appointed himself as manager of the Atlanta Braves....learn how he almost lost his life in the 1979 Fastnet sailing race (but came out the winner)...and discover surprising details about his dealings with Fidel Castro, Mikhail Gorbachev, Jimmy Carter, Bill Gates, Jack Welch, Warren Buffett, and many more influential people of the past half century.
With his usual frankness, Ted delves into his darker and more intimate memories - being left at a boarding school by his parents at age four, dealing with the devastating loss of his beloved sisters who died at seventeen and his hard-charging father, who committed suicide when Ted was twenty-four. He is also forthcoming about his marriages, including the one to Jane Fonda.
Equally revealing are the unique "Ted Stories" told by his friends, colleagues, and family, which are are peppered throughout the book.
In CALL ME TED, you'll hear Ted Turner's distinctive voice on every page. He tells you what makes him tick and what ticks him off, and delivers an honest account of what he's all about. Inspiring and entertaining, CALL ME TED sheds new light on one of the greatest visionaries of our time."
