You may not immediately recognize his face, but you’ve almost certainly heard his voice.
H. Jon Benjamin, the voice behind some of today’s most popular and iconic animated characters, including the titular characters in hit TV series Archer and Bob’s Burgers, has found a level of success that many would envy. But Jon isn’t interested in telling the world about his successes. Instead, he would like to remind us all that failure is also an option – in his new book Failure is an Option: An Attempted Memoir.
In FAILURE IS AN OPTION: An Attempted Memoir (on sale May 1, 2018), Jon invites readers to embrace their own missteps and the freedom that comes along with letting go of the constant grind towards success. With stories, examples of artistic and literary failings, and a powerful “can’t-do” attitude, this is the book the world doesn’t need right now but will get regardless.
Out now in hardback, thanks to publisher Dutton we have three copies to giveaway. To win a copy of Failure is an Option: An Attempted Memoir, just answer the following question:
Which of the following is also a character voiced by H. Jon Benjamin? Is it:
a) Duckman
b) The Maxx
c) Dr. Katz
