Positively Trek 256: Book Club: Making It So: A Memoir

Sir Patrick Stewart’s Life: In His Own Words

Since first appearing on our television screens in 1987 as Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Patrick Stewart has been a bit of an enigma to Star Trek fans. Over the years, this “Unknown British Shakespearean Actor” (as he was referred to as in the LA Times that year) has become a familiar and much-loved presence as the lead of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Now, his life is laid bare in his new memoir for all to read.

In this episode of the Positively Trek Book Club, hosts Dan and Bruce discuss Making It So: A Memoir by Sir Patrick Stewart. We discuss our expectations for the book, his early life, his relationships, his time before and after starring as Jean-Luc Picard, and much more!
