Autobiographies
 

What are some autobiographies you've read. OR, who are some people you wish had autobiographies?

I'm currently reading Charlie Chaplin's, and I wish there was one for Marilyn Monroe.

I'm sure there are biographies on Marilyn, but not an autobiography. She only made it to 36 and people generally write autobiographies later in life.

Charlie is interesting, he goes a little all over the place between his childhood years and I haven't even gotten to him starting in movies yet but he describes things like an artist. I can definitely believe he wrote it instead of a ghost writer.

Well she was a bit busy with all of the stress of her life, and the addictions that lead to. From what I've read she was a sweet girl who had way too much stress and no way of really dealing with it in a healthy way.

Yes, it seems like the most famous people in the world are generally the ones that suffered the most. Maybe it's what makes them interesting. At least Chaplin ended up happy with his wife and many children.

He liked younger women, got married 3 times before his final wife, oona, and had 8 kids with her and a few before that. All but one of his wives were below 20 when they married, but the last one lasted until he died.

Yep, they lived out their days in Switzerland at the end. I've read a lot about him, so I'm glad to finally have his own perspective on his life. I doubt it's 100% accurate, but seeing things from his eyes is just so interesting.

I actually got it for christmas but didn't read it because of school. I brought it with me for the plane ride and got about 100 something pages in, not even close to done. Just wish school let me read more.
