Best Autobiography Titles

If I may contribute a worst candidate:

sTORI Telling (Tori Spelling)
mmm

Darkness Visible, Styron’s memoir of madness.

Actually, all of Maya Angelou’s memoirs have great titles:

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
Gather Together in My Name
Singin’ and Swingin’ and Gettin’ Merry Like Christmas (my favorite)
The Heart of a Woman
All God’s Children Need Traveling Shoes
A Song Flung Up to Heaven
Mom & Me & Mom

And I love Whoopi Goldberg’s title Book

I was going to say that but I was not sure it belonged. I had no idea he had a sequel

I’m big on reference and autobiographies!

I thought I had two Kelsey Grammer books but I can only find one
“So Far”

Lucille Ball
“Love Lucy”

Regis Philbin
“I’m only one man”
“Who wants to be me?”

Fran Dresher
“Enter whining”

Bill Cosby
“Fatherhood”

Roseanne Arnold (at that time she was an Armold)
“My lives”

Mary Tyler Moore
“After All”

Rosie O’Donnell
“Find Me”

Paul Reiser
“Couplehood”
Guess Kelsey did not have another book…oh well:(

Russell Brand - My Booky Wook

Shirley, I Jest! by Cindy Williams of LaVerne & Shirley.

I have to ask: do you really find any of these clever?
mmm

Confessions of a Hooker: My Lifelong Love Affair with Golf by Bob Hope.

Shit My Dad Says is a hilarious name. Not an autobiography by any stretch, but certainly a memoir of sorts, as the aforementioned “shit” serves mostly as introductions to vignettes and essays about Halpern’s own life.

Carl Reiner: I Remember Me followed by I Just Remembered followed by What I Forgot to Remember.

In Memory Yet Green, Isaac Asimov

Fran Drescher’s second memoir, about her battle with ovarian cancer: Cancer Schmaner. For those of you not familiar with Yiddish, putting “sch” in front of a word is a way of trivializing the situation. (Cancer Schmancer, I’m getting on with my life).

Well… clinical depression, certainly.

The first two (or was it three?), excessively detailed autobios were titled after lines from a short quatrain attributed to Anonymous, but Asimov finally admitted writing it.

His final, more accessible version had the magnificently simple title I. Asimov.

Hitler: My Part in his Downfall by Spike Milligan.

I seem to remember an autobiography by Hope that was titled, “Where There’s Life, There’s…” but I couldn’t find it.

See post #34 :slight_smile:
** Anonymous Barbarian ** , you’re right. The titles originated from a verse written by Asimov after his publisher insisted on a quotation from a poem as a title

Missed 'em. I did enter the thread with I. Asimov in mind, though…
