DESCRIPTION:This summer, actor Mike Farrell (M*A*S*H, Desperate Housewives, etc.) 
 completed an 8,000-mile, 25 city book tour to promote the publication of 
 the paperback edition of his memoir, which includes a new introduction by 
 Martin Sheen. He visited every area of the nation except for the Pacific 
 coast--happily, he's decided to extend his tour for an event in Capitola, 
 California:\n\n--Tues., September 30, 7:30pm--CAPITOLA, CA--Capitola 
 Bookstore and Cafe, 1475 41st Ave.\n\nAfter gaining international stardom 
 for his role as B.J. Hunnicutt in the much-beloved television series 
 M*A*S*H, Mike Farrell embarked upon a more arduous and ultimately rewarding 
 path into the world’s social consciousness: as a tireless human rights 
 advocate. Amply demonstrated in this boundlessly optimistic narrative, Mr. 
 Farrell’s growing celebrity as an actor, writer, producer, and director 
 puts him in the unique position to witness, and participate in, the efforts 
 of peace-workers at home and throughout the world.\n\nA rare celebrity 
 couple who makes headlines for the right reasons, Mike and his wife, 
 actress Shelley Fabares (Coach), will drive themselves on this supplemental 
 tour, and will be networking with the human rights organizations that will 
 be sponsoring each event along the way. Judging from past events, Mr. 
 Farrell enters every community prepared to speak off-the-cuff, encouraging 
 each audience to guide him to whatever topic most interests it. From 
 memories of M*A*S*H and Providence—and stories from his current, 
 recurring role on the hit television program Desperate Housewives—to 
 heated debates on the Death Penalty, environmental causes, international 
 human rights abuses, gay rights, and election politics, Mr. Farrell can 
 speak with a moments notice to any of the complex issues covered in his 
 book.\n\nHis respectful charm proves more than capable of handling even the 
 most antagonistic of questioners, and, in select ’07 events following the 
 release of the hardcover edition of Just Call Me Mike, he left every 
 community feeling inspired and appreciative that he’d come through it. 
 Additionally, Mr. Farrell entered each town in the spotlight, garnering 
 interest from nearly every local media outlet and selflessly shifting the 
 spotlight from himself to the causes he promotes.\n\n
