What famous person's life story do you think everyone should know about?

I would choose Anne Frank both because of her innocent idealism in the face of evil chaos and for her wisdom in the face of same. I would choose Anne because the Holocaust needs to be made known to people throughout all time so that it never happens again. Any survivor's story would be worthy but Anne's story has a lot of impact because of her age at the time and also for the way she perceived life and her situation far ahead of her time.

Biography

There is nary a wild food authority today that has not been inspired, in some substantial way, by Euell Gibbons.

E u e l l's classic books, "Stalking the Wild Asparagus", "Stalking the Healthful Herbs", and "Stalking the Blue-eyed Scallop", are filled with real-life experiences in a countrified story-telling style that's informative, fun, and endearing.

Mel Blanc, the voice of Porky Pig, Bugs Bunny, Barney Rubble, Daffy Duck and countless other animated vertebrates

No one could do vertebrates like Mel.

Easy cowboy. Thats not something you want to just jump right into.

Start slow with maybe brussels sprouts. Much easier to manage for the novice.

I think that's a funny tagline! Worth using!

Been there done that, Nomad.

Brussel sprouts just don't do it for me.

It's the asparagus. Wild asparagus.

I need a cold shower.

Sorry, Red. What was the subject?

Oh! Yes!

Here's one of my heroes.
