Brian Grant’s autobiographical confessional is worth the read
One of Portland’s favorite sons has come out with his autobiography, and it’s a good one.
Brian Grant’s life story, written with author/sports journalist Ric Bucher, was released April 6 and is in bookstores and available on-line wherever books are sold.
Grant, 49, decided to write the book after a discussion with long-time friend and business associate Brian Berger.
“I was telling stories,” Grant says. “And Brian said, ‘Maybe now is the time to write the book.’ I thought back about my life and decided I’m ready to talk about not just my basketball career but other things — my personal life, getting Parkinson’s Disease, growing up in Ohio, becoming a man in the Northwest.”
