Pink Ink: Life's Too Short To Be Anyone But Yourself
Harry Cook In 2013, at age 22 and after years of struggling with his sexuality, Harry came out publicly, making international headlines and bringing him to the forefront of LGBTQI activism both nationally and internationally.
Pink Ink is the heartfelt memoir about a life of figuring oneself out.
From his early years dreaming of being a Disney princess, to his unsuccessful attempts at having a girlfriend, Pink Ink spans Harry’s life with "laugh-out-loud" and "sob-in-to-a-pillow" type-stories that give a beautiful look at a life far from uneventful.
Landing his first major film role opposite Academy Award winner Geena Davis' as her son in Accidents Happen, travelling to the Maldives to shoot a surf thriller movie (without being able to surf), as well as his first world movie premiere at Robert De Niro's prestigious Tribeca Film Festival in New York City all before his 18th birthday, Harry's life has been anything but normal.
With Harry's hilarious wit and heartfelt style, Pink Ink reflects' on his coming out as a teen, his struggles at home with his family and his severe battle with alcoholism and addiction which led him to a rehab facility at age 19.
Finding love just a month after leaving rehab, getting married, rescuing an English Bulldog named Poppy (who has her own Instagram account) from a rescue shelter in California and fighting for equality back home in Australia, Harry’s story is both touching and hilarious, warm and gritty and a story that proves there is nothing more important than being exactly who you are.
