Description:

Born Steven Charles Pickman in June of 1961, "Sarge" as he's known is adopted by a white Jewish couple from Long Island. Little did they know, the baby was the product of an orthodox Jewish woman and a black man. A piano virtuoso as a child, only going to the best schools and colleges, Sarge finds alcohol and drugs as a way of coping with his addictions. Even though he persevered and won jobs in the fashion and television industry, he found himself homeless and addicted on the streets of Manhattan. A friend, incidentally the only one he had left facilitated a trip to rehab that would be the turning point of his life. Getting clean and sober in 1990 led to Sarge getting into show business following his lifelong dream to become a comedian. Following a meteoric rise through the ranks in the ultra-competitive stand-up comedy business, he'd go on to perform with some of the biggest names at the time in adult contemporary music. He'd get married, have a son and go onto blend his professional comedic chops with his knowledge of addiction to become a counselor in treatment centers from Florida to Malibu, California as the only nationally known entertainer to work in rehabs with young people struggling with addiction. His birth, and then rebirth will have you laughing uproariously and then shedding a tear. A journey that is truly hilarious, uncanny and inspiring.
