The Happiest Man Alive: A Biography of Henry Miller
Mary V. Dearborn
Touchstone Books
, 1992
Another version of a seemingly enigmatic life
People generally speak of this bio when talking about "the good ones" on Henry Miller. I disagree. While in-depth, many facts listed are incorrect because of a lack of checking (although many checkers were used) with factual records. Dearborne's biggest angle seems to ...

If you wonder about Modern Artists and I do,

great overview of The life and times of modern art lover, Peggy Guggenhiem
This is an enjoyable read. I was interested in reading it after reading "The Rape of Euorpa" and "Duveen" it made sense to wonder what had become of the art/artists that were rescued from the WWII Nazi-occupation of Europe.
