Breaking Badly: How Entrepreneurship Saved My Life

by Lou Pimber, Michelle Morrow (Editor), Seth Char

Overview

Immerse yourself in the gripping tale of the American Dream. Lou Pimber's Breaking Badly takes you on a dangerous journey as he works as an undercover narcotics agent, ultimately facing betrayal by his own. This is a story of reinvention and overcoming PTSD - from an immigrant to a soldier, a cop, an actor, and finally, an entrepreneur.

"The drugs, the guns, the women, the booze - they were all props. Like good method actors, we took our places and delivered our lines. We became masters of street theater; every day was showtime, and we were the stars. King Kong had nothing on us."

Lou Pimber breaks his silence and brings the noise in this suspenseful, real-life account of growing up in Mexico, living humbly in the US, and becoming a US Army Combat Medic at age 18.

After extreme circumstances forced him into medical retirement from law enforcement, Lou found therapy in acting. He appeared in AMC's hit series Breaking Bad, as well as numerous other films and commercials. Reinvention eventually paved the way for him to become a successful entrepreneur and speaker, allowing him to share his impactful story, advocate for the Thin Blue Line, and support those dealing with post-traumatic related issues.
