Becoming a parent changes everything. Fear and love live together. Suddenly there is a person in the world for whom you want happiness and safety, even when those two don't always coincide. Diary of a Young Father comprises forty letter-poems written by award-winning film director Edoardo Ponti to his unborn child during the forty weeks of his wife’s pregnancy. These poems are gifts, lessons, slices of joy, maps for how we build a life, for how we work and learn, how we love, and how we remember.
Edoardo Ponti is a film director who divides his time between California and Italy. A legacy of film greats—son of Sophia Loren and producer Carlo Ponti, Sr.—Edoardo has made a name for himself in the industry with numerous award-winning shorts, feature films, as well as plays and an opera. He graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Southern California with a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and Creative Writing. He is married to the actress Sasha Alexander, with whom he has two wonderful children. This is his first book of poetry.
