Title: Foster kid
Description: Actor Paul Barber grew up in 1950s Liverpool. After the death of his mother, Paul and his siblings spent the rest of their childhood in a succession of children's and foster homes. Paul left care at the age of sixteen, and three years later landed his first acting role, by accident, in the musical Hair which put him on the path to London and a successful career in show business. This is a frank, sometimes funny, account of a young boy's life spent in care, his troubled youth and how one lucky break got him where he is today.
