Cameron Douglas is an actor and the son and grandson of legendary actors Michael and Kirk Douglas. He is also the author of the #1 Amazon bestseller "Long Way Home."
Douglas was born into wealth, privilege, and comfort, but by the age of thirty, he was struggling with a powerful and abusive drug problem. After being arrested, he was tried and served almost eight years in federal prison. His experiences from a privileged background to hitting rock bottom as a heroin addict are candidly documented in "Long Way Home."
Since his release, Douglas has made significant strides in his recovery and personal growth. He has become a public speaker, sharing his journey from substance abuse to recovery and the importance of family support in overcoming challenges. Douglas has continued his career in acting, starring in independent films including "The Runner" and "Wire Room" opposite Bruce Willis and Kevin Dillon. He is also appearing with Tom Holland in "The Crowded Room" for Apple TV+ and has teamed up with his father in the upcoming film "Blood Knot." His speaking topics often draw from his own life experiences, providing a raw and unstintingly honest recounting of his harrowing, remarkable, and, ultimately, inspiring story.

From Privilege to Prison to the Long Way Home

With honesty and candor, he provides an unflinching account of his dangerous descent into years of addiction — and his highly inspiring rise to recovery. Contrasting a storied childhood as a member of Hollywood royalty to hitting rock bottom as a heroin addict, Cameron shares his struggle to return to society and family after many years of drug abuse and almost eight years in federal prison.
