The Memoirs of an Amnesiac

The Memoirs of an Amnesiac is the autobiography of composer, radio, and television personality Oscar Levant.[1] Published in 1965 by G. P. Putnam's Sons, it a best-seller, following a quarter-century after his first book, A Smattering of Ignorance.[2]

Levant intersperses his reminisces about Hollywood in its heyday with one-liners and pithy quotes by himself and others.
