About the Book:
Comedian Al Isaacs grew up believing he knew exactly who he was: an only child with loving parents in a home on Long Island. But five decades later, a phone call from his mother's oncologist revealed a family secret - he was adopted. And in a truth stranger than fiction—he was part of a gray-market adoption, hidden behind false paperwork by the country's most notorious baby broker. It was the first of many plot twists he never saw coming.
In Finding Mary Smith, Isaacs takes readers on an unforgettable search for the woman who gave him life and the truth that nearly vanished with her all too common name. His journey leads from suburban New York to the smoky coffeehouses of Greenwich Village, where his birth mother once sang alongside the dreamers of the 1960s folk music scene. And suddenly, his whole life made sense.
Told with wit, heart, and a performer’s eye for timing, Finding Mary Smith is a poignant and funny exploration of identity, family, and the stories we inherit—and the ones we have to write for ourselves.
Because sometimes the biggest surprise isn’t who you find—it’s who you become.
