Title Fearless and Free Author Josephine Baker Location Other Rating Somewhat Recommended Book Review This memoir was written by the artist in 1949 and was only recently published in English in the US.  While hers is a fascinating life story, I found the writing style to be very abrupt.  She lived such a full life yet she only scratches the surface of details.  For example, she describes performing on stage to the point of bleeding and passing out but then doesn't finish the story and moves on to the next tour stop.  I'm still a fan, but I would only recommend this for a die hard fan.
