Coming soon to TV CONFIDENTIAL: Eric Braeden on celebrating his fortieth anniversary playing Victor Newman on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS; being directed by his son, Christian Gudegast, in the film DEN OF THIEVES; and what Kobe Bryant meant to the Lakers and to the community of Los Angeles. If you’re looking for a good book to read during this period of social distancing, read Eric’s memoir, I’LL BE DAMNED. His life story is a classic immigration story that embodies the American Dream. THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS airs weekdays on CBS
