Dan Matthews is the incomparable public face of People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), one of the most effective and enduring pressure groups in the world.
Matthews has strutted naked before a fur convention in Tokyo, and dressed variously as a carrot to promote vegetarianism, as a priest when he crashed a Milan fashion show, and as a rabbit when he stormed a GM parade float to protest their use of animal in crash tests.
In this hilariously off-beat , globe-trotting memoir, Matthews shares stories of his unorthodox coming-of-age and equally outrageous career. From the Hollywood and London rock scenes, the inner sanctums of New York high fashion, jails in Hong Kong and Boston, and a physchiatric ward in Paris, 'Committed' spotlights the adventures life can offer when you don't abandon your youthful ideas and imagination.
