Finding Happy by Peter Samuelson is a hybrid of memoir and self-help book, offering young adults practical wisdom drawn from the author’s own remarkable journey as a film producer and philanthropist. Samuelson, who founded several major charities such as the Starlight Children’s Foundation and EDAR, emphasizes that happinessstems not from fame or wealth but from creating purpose, helping others, and taking charge of one’s own life. The book is structured around more than 50 short, story-driven chapters that blend personal anecdotes with actionable advice and reflection prompts. From navigating the chaos of show business to mentoring foster youth, Samuelson shares lessons onempathy, leadership, resilience, and community. Stories such as “The Girl Who Froze” illustrate the power of unconditional support, love and peer solidarity, while his reflections on failure, luck, and taking risks highlight the value of persistence and humility.
Samuelson also teaches readers how to plan their futures through tools like spider
graphs, how to use storytelling to create empathy, and how to develop courage in
the face of fear. He calls on readers to fight tribalism, care for democracy, and leave a legacy by uplifting others. In his words, real happiness comes from being of use to the world—and from daring to live a life of meaning, love, and service.
