All about Me: My Remarkable Life in Show Business by Mel Brooks
2.0
My favorite part of Mel Brooks' life story is when he and a buddy hung outside their Brooklyn neighbor, Don Appell's stoop, to wait for him to come home to ask him advice on showbiz, which then lead to Appell giving Brooks his first big break by bringing him up into the Borscht Belt in the Catskills to work and later perform. His entire career can be traced back to asking his neighbor for advice. I don't even know my neighbors and actively avoid one of them who always lingers outside and smokes.
