All About Me!: My Remarkable Life in Show Business by Mel Brooks, reviewed by Jean "JT" Thaler

All About Me! charts Mel Brooks’s meteoric rise from a Depression-era kid in Brooklyn to the recipient of the National Medal of Arts. Whether serving in the United States Army in World War II, or during his burgeoning career as a teenage comedian in the Catskills, Mel was always mining his experiences for material, always looking for the perfect joke.

Filled with tales of struggle, achievement, and camaraderie (and dozens of photographs), readers will gain a more personal and deeper understanding of the incredible body of work behind one of the most accomplished and beloved entertainers in history.

If attendees have a personal story about Mel Brooks, we'd love to have them share.

The event is free and open to the public.

Light refreshments, sponsored by Sisterhood, will be available in the Chapel foyer after the book review.
