Has anyone ever heard of Bruce Lee?  I’m guessing… yes.  Today I chat with Matthew Polly on his new book, Bruce Lee, a life.  This is the first authoritative biography on Bruce’s life which Matthew took over 6 years researching and interviewing those closest to Bruce.  We chat about his discoveries and the process of writing the book.  Matthew is also a fellow martial artist who has chronicled his experiences in his other works: American Shaolin, where he studied for 2 years at the Shaolin Temple and Tapped Out, where he trained for and fought in an MMA fight.
