over forty years  Sam Neill's name has been a reassuring mark of quality. With starring roles
in hit movies like Dead Calm   The Hunt for Red October   The Piano and Jurassic Park   Sam's
work has taken him from arthouse to blockbuster  and from cult classics to TV hits like Peaky
Blinders . Few actors have proved as versatile  nor so well-loved.  Born in 1947 in Northern
Ireland  Sam emigrated to New Zealand with his close-knit family at the age of seven. At school
in Christchurch he discovered he was hopeless at sport  but loved acting.  Following a
breakthrough role in Gillian Armstrong's My Brilliant Career in 1979  Sam found his way 
sometimes by accident  to his own brilliant career and Hollywood's A-list  working alongside a
stellar list of actors  writers and directors. In Did I Ever Tell You This? he invites you in 
sharing stories from an extraordinary life with charm  honesty  good humour  and a wry
appreciation of the absurd.   Moving and often laugh-out-loud funny  this is the inspirational
story of a man who  when life knocks him down  stands up again.
