Ill check that out. I just started reading his autobiography, "The trouble with cinderella"- man Artie was pretty out there.
Ill check out the bio when I am done with the autobio-something tells me the one I am reading now isnt going to have a happy ending.

There have been other bios of him, but they are out of print. I never got a copy of the Cinderella autiobiography.
The author of this new one did a recenct critique of another book for the NYTimes Book Review section. When I checked out the blurb on Nolan's creds, it mentioned that he had a forthcoming Shaw bio. I then ordered it pre-publication (and I also tipped off GBK).
Mrs. Segal has first dibs on reading it.....she finds A.S. fascinating (must be something about the initials ![[wink]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie3.gif) )
