I know that you mentioned to me that you actually wrote a biography about J.K.

Rowling.

That's right.

I'm currently wrapping that one up.

It's coming out through Sky Horse Publishing, who released my biography on Alan Dershowitz.

And it will be the first complete biography of J.K.

Rowling.

It's coming out in April.

If you can believe it, as famous as she is, the only other book available about her was published 25 years ago.

It's wildly inaccurate and out of date, given the fact that it was published before even any of the movies, the Harry Potter movies came out.

J.K.

Rowling has an amazing rags to riches story, one of the best ever.

And I was able to interview relatives of hers who have never spoken before.

I was able to get dozens of full-color pictures that had never been published.

And I'm really excited about that.

She's become quite a controversial figure.

You know, she used to be totally loved by...

the liberal side of the political aisle.

Now she's totally vilified, absolutely vilified.

She went from being a goddess to a demon.
