LORNE The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live

Hot on the heels of the 50th anniversary of "Saturday Night Live," Susan Morrison's tell-all biography of SNL creator Lorne Michaels helps satisfy fans' need for behind-the-scenes info about the beloved show. Narrator Kristen DiMercurio is as reserved as Michaels himself in her delivery. The audiobook traces Michaels's humble beginnings in Toronto and his bumpy rise to superstardom as the SNL creator and tough-minded producer. Who doesn't want to hear about the battles between staff writers and the stars? Or the dirt on who was sleeping with whom? (Answer: pretty much everyone with everyone except Jane Curtain.) And, of course, what was (insert cast member name here) really like? The audiobook is more than 22 hours long, but listeners will still want to hear more.
