American Prince: A Memoir by Tony Curtis

American Prince: A Memoir

by Tony Curtis

"American Prince: A Memoir," by Tony Curtis and Peter Golenbock, also promises loads of real-life dirt this October from Hollywood's über pretty boy, including revelations about his gay experiences. "I think they came early in Curtis' career and obviously stick," says Howell. "But it's tantalizing stuff. It certainly shows Curtis is honest enough to talk in this book."

"American Prince" comes hot off the heels of Golenbock's controversial 2007 read, "7: The Mickey Mantle Novel" -- a book Publishers Weekly said would make Henry Miller blush. "Golenbock got skewered for the way he used real-life people like Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio in this fictional story. Critics called it downright pornographic," says Howell. Following such a furor, Howell says, "I'm betting Golenbock got Curtis to talk a lot."
