Memoirs of an Artist - Billy Selesnick - Bog

Bag om Memoirs of an Artist

"Billy Selesnick tells all (well, almost all) in Memoirs of an Artist, the meandering story of his life. While outlining his artistic growth, his druggie lifestyle, and sexual peccadillos, Selesnick doesn't shy away from talking about his old pal Chuck Barris and their common profession as political assassins." - Shirrel Rhoades, former Associate Publisher, Harper's Magazine Here's the first-person story of a talented artist who freelanced as an assassin. If this sounds somewhat like Gong Show host Chuck Barris's "unauthorized autobiography," Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, there's good reason. According to Billy Selesnick, he worked with Barris. Not only did they ply their deadly trade in the '60s, but when George Clooney decided to do the movie version of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Barris sent him to meet Billy Selesnick, as an example of a real-deal hitman. Aside from that, Billy Selesnick's life has been a fascinating journey of art, sex, drugs, political activism, and breathless travels around the world.
