Paul Newman: A Life

"Paul Newman: a Life" by Shawn Levy was one of the best biographies I've read in a long time. I read another book by Levy a few years ago called "Rat Pack Confidential" about another one of my favorite guys, Frank Sinatra. I love how Levy doesn't make excuses: he mixes the good with the bad and tells it like it is, making his subjects seem less perfect and more real. And although the books are very well researched, they aren't dry--they read like really good fiction.
