Meet John Cusack: Actor, Writer, and Hollywood’s Worst Nightmare
John Cusack has been gracing the silver screen since the early 80s, but it’s his off-screen antics that have really made him a household name. With a family entrenched in showbiz, it’s no surprise that Cusack followed suit. However, his mother, Ann Paula Cusack, was a math teacher and political activist, which may explain why John has become a bit of a political firebrand himself. In fact, he’s so good at it that he’s managed to scare Hollywood away from offering him roles.
When he’s not busy ruffling feathers in Tinseltown, Cusack is busy writing political books and articles about Edward Snowden. His latest work, Things That Can and Cannot Be Said, is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of politics and journalism. Speaking of journalism, Cusack is also the founder of the Freedom of the Press Foundation, an organization dedicated to protecting and empowering public-interest journalism.
Love him or hate him, there’s no denying that John Cusack is a force to be reckoned with. And if Hollywood won’t cast him anymore, well, that’s their loss.
