(Fairly) New Biographies or Autobiographies

[CaliforniaNow]

Have you read any?  Who were they?  Good or bad, in your opinion?  Why?

I regret to say I haven't read any. I would like to though.

I'm waiting for mine to come out, but Spielberg bought the rights. He won't tell me how it ends.

Last year I wrote a paper on Lord Baden Powell, read several biographies and his auto biographies for research.

Willie Nelson's was good (It's A Long Story).  Looked up the reviews for Burt Reynolds' But Enough About Me.  Sounded too sad and regretful.  I like funny.  Besides there was another by him from the '90s that sounded more upbeat.  Judd Apatow has one (Sick in the Head) that talks about all the comedians he has idolized and/or interviewed.  Might give it a shot.  Right now, I'm reading Troublemaker:  Surviving Hollywood and Scientology by Leah Remini.  Good so far.  Still the best (though not at all new):  Fred Allen's Letters, Chaplin by Chaplin, and any of the James Thurbers, in my opinion.
