biographies.
I'm looking for an interesting biography, I'm not just talking about historic biographies, but something about somebody really interesting.

Now, i'm looking forward to getting Helmut Newton's and Leonard Cohen's biographies.

Any recomendation?

Re: biographies.
Ooooh I second that. Everything he's written is great. I just finished reading "Perfectly Reasonable Deviations from the Beaten Track", a collection of his letters compiled by his daughter. It's not exactly spell-binding, but in the interest of building as complete an image of the man as possible, it was pretty valuable.

But, yeah, "Surely You're Joking..." is what got me obsessed with the man.

Dispatches From the Edge: . . . Anderson Cooper.

Rather psuedo-biog. but a great read none-the-less. I'd be his groupie bitch anyday.
