'30 Rock' Star Tracy Morgan Talks About New Book 'I Am The New Black'

Brooklyn's own actor/comedian Tracy Morgan stopped by the studio to talk about his new book I Am The New Black, his role as Tracy Jordan on NBC's 30 Rock and upcoming performance at Carnegie Hall.

"With brutal honesty and his trademark take-no-prisoners humor, Tracy tells the story of his rise to fame, with all its highs and its many lows--from the very public battles with alcohol and diabetes that threatened his career and his life to the private and poignant end of his twenty-year marriage. In his singularly warped and brilliant way he muses on family, love, sex, race, politics, ambition, and what it takes to bring the funny," says Random House.

Morgan, of Saturday Night Live fame, is scheduled to perform stand-up at Carnegie Hall on Saturday, November 6 at 8pm. For more information and tickets, visit www.carnegiehall.org.

30 Rock airs Thursday nights at 9:30pm on NBC. Morgan is also host of Scare Tactics, which airs at Tuesday nights at 9pm on the Syfy Network.

You can catch Morgan next in the upcoming movies A Couple of Dicks, where he stars opposite Bruce Willis, and Death at a Funeral, where he stars opposite Chris Rock.

I Am The New Black is available in stores now. Click here for a list of Morgan's local book signings.
