Celebrity Autobiography and Celebrity Autobiography: The Next Chapter, created by Eugene Pack and developed by Eugene Pack and Dayle Reyfel, feature a line-up of rotating performers who read—in both solo and ensemble pieces— the actual words and stories written by the famous and the infamous in their autobiographies.
