Description:
 Who could forget Oprah’s infamous smack-down of James Frey on national television in 2006? Frey’s memoir, “A Million Little Pieces,” turned out to be, you know, fake. This revelation occurred after Oprah had selected “A Million Little Pieces” for her book club and made Frey into a bestselling author. Frey, however, wasn’t the first person to fabricate his life story for a book deal. Come learn about the rich history of autobiographical forgery with Community Librarian Nate Pedersen.
