From his turbulent upbringing and early success as the star of the Jackson Five, to his wildly successful career as a solo artist in the 1980s, through the scandals that have overshadowed his music career throughout the late 1990s and into the 21st century, Jackson has lived up to his title of "entertainer" by maintaining the public's interest. Covering all the topics that come to mind when one thinks of this superstar, MAN IN THE MIRROR is careful not to choose sides, maintaining an objective, humorous perspective on a personal life that became public drama. When THRILLER was released in 1982, Jackson was at the height of his musical career, recognized for his undeniable talent and infectious stage persona.
