  • Michael J. Fox shot to fame in the ‘80s, thanks in part to his breakout role as Alex P. Keaton on NBC’s Family Ties. Bigger parts soon followed, including the role that he would be associated with for years: Marty McFly in Back to the Future.
    But Fox has done more than time travel during his evolution into a megastar, and he’s had to overcome a number of obstacles along the way. From his improvised college education to his efforts to advance research into a cure for Parkinson’s, here’s how Michael J. Fox's transformation is a staggering sight to see.

    I was amazed at watching him testify in front of Congress unmedicated being the "big star" that he is to show them just exactly what they are dealing with. He was eloquent even though he was fighting his disease and at the same time it was heartbreaking to watch him struggle knowing that this is how he lived his life after all he's given us. Not only is he a wonderful man but has a wonderful woman standing by his side through all of this. My hat's off to the Fox family.

    A few years ago, I was driving my taxi on the Upper East Side of NY. A wife helped her cane bearing husband into the cab and I took them to their 5th Ave. apartment. It took me a few minutes, but I realized it was Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollen. We had a great conversation about restaurants and music (I make it a point never to talk to celebrities about their careers). They were down to earth and friendly.

Many celebrities would not be so humble or allow themselves to be seen this way, and he made his point very effectively. Many people will continue to benefit from his wilingness to to speak out on this.

Maybe it works on some people, but I've never really been one for getting starstruck or emotionally invested in the cult of personality. That, and I still don't watch much tv, nor did I then. I just thought it was an amusing dynamic of the black sheep that theirs would be an overachieving republican barely five feet tall, if that. Didn't both of his studio sisters eventually tower over him? I also remember when his character got hooked on speed from Mallory's overweight friend, so that he could study for some important exam. What an ambitious delinquent, lol. Cheers!

I know what I've been diagnosed with will never go away. But what I also know is that I've gotta get a hold of something to help take it off my mind...even for just a few minutes would be a nice change

    So glad I got to meet him at Megacon, May 2019. Was a true "meet your hero" moment. Had him sign a small model DeLorean and said to him "I have heard that things best work out for those who handle things when they work out."
    A total flub from his memoir "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Future", when he quoted "Things work out best for those who best handle how things work out." I tried to memorize it on the one day drive to Orlando. Whoops : ).
    Even though I totally hosed the quote, my friend came up to me and asked me what I said to MJF. When I inquired as to why he wondered, he told me you could visibly see MJF stop what he was doing, look up at me and smile.
    My life was pretty much completed in that moment.

    I loved watching Michael J Fox act. He was a fantastic actor. He said that when he was acting in the sitcom "Family Ties" and the movie "Back to the Future" that he only got 2 hours of sleep each day! He's an amazing man because he doesn't give up. He's not letting Parkinson's disease keep him down. It really helps a lot that he's an eternal optimist. He has a good wife and kids that help him too. More power to him. He's also a very friendly person.

    I'm about 5-6 years older than him but have enjoyed all of his movies. What I am most thankful for though is the awareness he's brought to PD. My brother-in-law was diagnosed with PD about 4 years ago. I have learned so much and have been guided in the right direction to learn about this disease to better understand and help my brother-in-law through the Michael J Fox awareness groups and Foundation. Many of the PD docs refer patients there also for added imfo. It saddens me that Michael or anyone else must live with this horrific disease but because of Michael much more has been learned of it ~

    Thanks for this terrific biography! I grew up watching MJF starting with his Family Ties days. I once got a peek at him while he was taking a break while filming 'Light of Day' in Cleveland. I was shocked to learn he was a smoker. Changed my perception of Alex P. Keaton! But it didn't change my admiration for him as a great actor. Loved him as the diabolically clever Louis Canning on The Good Wife. Love him still as a Parkinson's survivor. :-)

    I met Michael J. Fox in Boston at a bar next to Boston University in 1991. He was in Boston to watch the Bruins in the playoffs. He sat with Cam Neely, a Bruins star and part owner today, and Woody Harrelson of Cheers fame. Harrelson was wearing a wig as a disguise. I went over and got Fox's autograph, and he seems like a great guy. Best wishes to him and his family. Incidentally, Fox grew up in Vancouver, as did Neely and Fox is a hockey fanatic.

    I always enjoyed watching him in every one of his roles, his timing, gentle sense of humor always came through.
    After I discovered he'd been living such a busy life, while fighting Parkinson's I was very sad for him & his family. My Father was losing hiß hard-fought battle with the same disease.
    Michael's openness about the disease, symptoms, research, etc. were a big help time in learning to be a better healthcare advocate for Dad.

    Michael J. has always been an inspiration to me for a long, long time. He is a "FANTASTIC" actor and seems to be one of the most down to earth, compassionate people on this planet. He comes across to me like someone with more common sense than the vast majority of people out there. I have admired his acting of about every character he portrayed. I really began to admire him more when I learned how good of a guitar player he was. God bless this man and I wish him the best in his struggles and adjustments through life. I've learned myself how quickly your rug can be pulled out from under you and your life can be turned upside down and inside out since I was diagnosed with cancer in 2006. This most recent surgery of many I've had set me back more than I ever imagined cancer could other than taking your life completely. Believe me, these life changing adjustments are more of a challenge than anyone not experiencing them can realize!!!
    I do so whole heartedly wish Michael and his family the very, very best that can be!!!
