Go for GAGA

Lady Gaga is a fascinating musical artist that has been in the news recently. Whether you know her for her outrageous clothing, euro-beat music or fascinating music videos, she is certainly an entertainer for today's age! If you are curious about getting the chance to know her better, try checking out her biograpy, GAGA by Johnny Morgan (B Lady Gaga). The book contains the story of her fascinating life, including many full-color, full-page photos from her recent tours and from other stages in her life. I especially enjoyed reading the vignettes about the people in her life who influenced her music and fashion sense (such as Andy Warhol, Freddie Mercury and Alexander McQeen). The book is well-written and leaves the reader with the sense that he/she has learned a lot more about the things that motivate Lady Gaga to continue to perform. I look forward to reading more about this rising star as her career continues to burn brightly. Johnny Morgan is the coauthor of The Art of the LP, consulting editor on the New York Times best-seller Hippie and has written popular music books for over twenty years. If you like reading this book, scan the library's Biography section for other gems---I bet you'll find a story about another "famous" person that you'll enjoy reading too.
