Revenge of the Nerd by Curtis Armstrong subtitled The singular adventures of the man who would be BOOGER
It's the Hollywood Biography of Curtis Armstrong who played Booger in Revenge of the Nerds and Lewis in Risky Business plus a whole bunch of other things. It's a pretty good telling of his life story. There is a lot of emphasis on him being a Nerd. Too much in my opinion. He did have a lot of adventures. He had an upbringing a lot of us can relate to. The chapters about Risky Business and Revenge of the Nerds are the most in depth. There are lots of juicy anecdotes about cast and crews. Oddly, he doesn't talk a lot about Anthony Edwards. His later chapters on Moonlighting and Supernatural are kind of brief compared to the earlier chapters. I was amused to learn he was 28 when he played a High Schooler in Risky Business.
You're going to really like Hollywood memoirs to venture into this one.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
