Hardcover. A deeply entertaining and intimate memoir by Academy Award winner Dustin Hoffman, one of the most acclaimed actors of our time, whose work across Hollywood, film, and theater has reflected the changing zeitgeist of America over the past sixty years. For nearly six decades, Dustin Hoffman has been one of the most compelling and unpredictable figures in American culture. From his breakthrough performance in The Graduate to his unforgettable roles in Midnight Cowboy, Tootsie, Rain Man, and beyond, he has spent a lifetime inhabiting extraordinary characters and redefining what a Hollywood leading man could be. Now, in Look at Me, Hoffman turns his remarkable powers of observation on himself. Warm, candid, hilarious, and deeply moving, Look at Me is an intimate memoir about art, ambition, family, friendship, love, aging, and the mysteries of a creative life. Written with acclaimed author Ariel Levy, the book traces Hoffman's journey from a young actor searching for purpose to a two-time Academy Award winner reflecting on what matters most as he enters his ninth decade. Along the way, Hoffman shares stories that are by turns outrageous, poignant, and unforgettable: an unexpected clash with Steve McQueen, adventures in Greenwich Village during the turbulent 1960s, encounters with legends including Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Mike Nichols, Robert Duvall, Arthur Miller, and Gene Hackman, and the personal experiences that shaped some of his most celebrated performances. But Look at Me is more than a chronicle of a storied Hollywood career. It is a meditation on mortality, identity, and the enduring need to create. With the wit, vulnerability, and emotional honesty that have defined his finest work, Hoffman invites readers into the private world behind the public icon. The result is a memoir as distinctive as the man himself: funny, searching, wise, and impossible to forget.

Look at Me is both an intimate account of Dustin Hoffman’s work as an actor, collaborating with the greats of the last six decades—Mike Nichols, Gene Hackman, Meryl Streep, Robert Redford, Barbra Streisand, Laurence Olivier, Steve McQueen, Anne Bancroft—in era-defining films, and a profound contemplation of mortality by a person entering his nineties and looking back on a remarkable life. (Hoffman was slated to be the failure in his family...he even failed at that.)
Fans will finish this book feeling that they truly know Hoffman: the way his mind works; how he prepares for a part; his experience growing up in Los Angeles as a lower middle-class Jewish kid in the 1940s, then arriving in New York City full of passion in the late fifties, only to find himself crowned the “voice of his generation” in Life magazine by the end of the sixties. In the decades since, Hoffman has shown his brilliance and breadth in some of the most iconic movies of the 20th century.
In his memoir, he proves to be an ardent, entertaining, and deeply empathic storyteller…a narrator whose company you will relish.
