Zeigler made a name for himself in South Carolina politics through his campaign for the U.S. Senate in 1972 against Strom Thurmond and a subsequent candidacy in the states 1974 Democratic gubernatorial primary. Unsuccessful in both, Zeigler nonetheless distinguished himself as a man of passionate convictions in the value of public service. His memoir recounts these and other defining moments from a life spent pursuing the public good, often against insurmountable opposition. A native of Florence, South Carolina, Zeigler represents a vanishing breed of public servantthe classically educated progressive rising from modest small-town roots and driven by a genuine sense of responsibility to better his community, state, and country. Throughout his career, Zeigler has faced the frustration of being on the verge of high office or important reform, yet ending up on the losing side or having played just a minor role in victory. Undaunted by these near misses, he takes satisfaction in the effort over the results.

Join author Becky Billingsley for a trip back in time as she examines some of the city's most memorable attractions.

To even attempt to tell the truth, the 'whole truth' and 'nothing but' is a hallucinogenic enigma of someone, anyone, sitting somewhere in a too dark or too bright room out of touch with reality and practicality where it is needed most, most often: dealing with fellow humanoid specimens. Nevertheless, an honest, truly honest, attempt was made to make this painfully modest and palatably truthful. However, exact accuracy and actual chronology are horses still in the barn.

Instant New York Times Bestseller From the host of Everything Iconic with Danny Pellegrino comes a collection of stories you'll be glad didn't happen to you. Think of the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you. Was it the time your high school cheer squad taunted you in front of the entire town? Was it the time your best friend's mom caught you streaking in all your naked, self-conscious glory? What about the time you accidentally threw a tooth at your dry cleaner or took an urn into Kohl's for some holiday shopping? For Danny Pellegrino, the answer is all of the above. Growing up as a closeted gay kid in small-town Ohio wasn't easy, and Danny has the stories to prove it. But coming of age in the 90s still meant something magical to Danny. The music, film, and celebrity moments of his youth were truly iconic, and his love for all things pop culture connected him to a world larger than the one he knew in the suburban Midwest. And through all the pains of growing up, Danny could always look to that world for hope—whether that meant bingeing The Nanny until he had the confidence of Fran Fine, belting out Brandy songs until his heartaches were healed, or watching semi-clothed Ryan Phillippe scenes until his cheeks burned from blushing. With refreshing honesty and jaw-dropping absurdity, Danny invites readers to experience his most formative moments in life—from his hometown in Ohio to his hit podcast and career in entertainment today. How Do I Un-Remember This? is an unfiltered and all-too-relatable glimpse into Danny's life and the heartfelt and hilarious moments that shaped it. Although he wouldn't change them for the world, these stories are—unfortunately—true.
