Someone asked earlier if there was an autobiography of Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. I thought that would be interesting, so now I am asking who else would be interesting?

"Candy Girl: A Year in the Life of an Unlikely Stripper" by Diablo Cody. As you may know, Cody's first screenplay was made into a hit indie film: "Juno." This book was written first and is autobiographical in content. "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote. Not an autobiography, but written as if from variety of viewpoints in actual 'infamous' event. "The Glass Castle" by Jeannette Walls; an autobiography with one of the best 'hooks' I've read: something like (can't find my copy right now): "I was in a taxi wondering if I was overdressed for the event I was to attend when I saw Mom dumpster-diving." That is, I believe, in the short Forward. The book is a good one about survival and dreams. "Teacher Man" by Frank McCourt is the best one by him in my opinion. Tells what it is like on 'the other side of a desk' when McCourt first tries to teach high school English, later creative writing, at four different New York City schools. Progress made, much humor, some pathos, all pragmatic. About his job before became famed writer. ADD: "The Autobiography of Malcolm X" as related by Alex Haley (author of "Roots") is a good choice. This man goes through many changes, famous and infamous, and much realization by him comes almost too late. Good movie too.

Hannibal- It would be amazing to hear his story. Unfortunetly we dont know most of his history. Even though most of what we know was written by his enemies i.e Romans wrote about him. I would love to read about how he crossed the Alps with a whole army!!! Also about his childhood and how he was raised.

I could think of lots...but right now, for whatever reason, I'm going with Babe Didrickson Zaharias or Louisa May Alcott.
