Real-Life CSI
You might be as big a fan of the show, CSI, as I am. If you are, I know how you feel on certain weekday evenings when you settle down in front of your television, anticipating solving the mystery along with your favorite CSI characters! If you enjoy the show, you might also enjoy reading the biography of Anthony E. Zuiker, Mr. CSI, the mastermind behind the most popular televsion show in history, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and its spin-offs, CSI: Miami and CSI: NY. Zuiker was a balding, overweight guy driving a tram in Las Vegas in 1990, dreaming of fame and fortune while telling all his friends about the screenplay he was writing. Zuiker grew up in Las Vegas, the son of parents who were actively employed in the casino life and seedy underbelly of the city. Zuiker's rise to fame is chronicled in this book, which begins with an honest examination of his dad's suicide, which occurred in 2005 when he was writing a script for CSI: NY. The book is a deeply personal story which shows how Zuiker became interested in writing about crime, and shows what he gained through his experience. This is a great book for fans of any of the CSI shows or crime fiction!
