Desmond Child is the creative genius behind some of the biggest smash hits that contributed to the success of music icons Bon Jovi, KISS, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Ricky Martin, and, of late, Ava Max. In Livin' On A Prayer, he reveals how he climbed his way to the top amid extraordinary circumstances and shares his very personal and unbelievable journey that shaped him into an international treasure. For a half-century, songwriter Desmond Child has created the music, lyrics, and production of some of the world's most memorable hits such as Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" and "You Give Love a Bad Name" or Ricky Martin's "Livin' la Vida Loca" and "She Bangs" amongst his vast catalog. But in Livin' on a Prayer, Desmond himself takes center stage to share his transformational story from misfit outsider to cultural pacesetter. In collaboration with legendary music biographer David Ritz, Child recounts his unconventional upbringing as his family fled Cuba in the '60s and fell into poverty, he details his shocking discovery at age 18 that the man he called "dad" was not his biological father, and he courageously bares his soul about navigating the trials of being a gay man in an oh-so macho world. His is a story of willing himself not to fail and overcoming repeated setbacks to establish himself as one of the most influential musicians of all time.
