Publisher's summary

In the sunlit heat of 1964 Los Angeles, Meet the Newmans reveals the cracks beneath the facade of America's beloved TV family. As the image of the Newmans, idolized across the nation for their flawless personas, begins to crumble, dark secrets and hidden desires threaten to topple their empire.

Del Newman, the patriarch, is the genius driving their success, but now, at the brink of obscurity, he grapples with obsolescence as their show teeters on the edge of cancellation. Dinah, his wife, is suffocated by her role, longing for passion and identity beyond the home. Their sons, Guy and Shep, present a picture-perfect image to the world while struggling with their own turmoil and secrets.

A catastrophic accident thrusts the Newmans into chaos, forcing them to confront their issues as they strive to protect their legacy.

This funny, warm, and affecting listen is all about the dual lives we lead, because it turns out we all have a behind the scenes . . .
