One of the greatest of all show business autobiographies was Harpo Speaks, written by Harpo Marx in 1961. Now Harpo’s son, Bill Marx has written a book appropriately titled Son Of Harpo Speaks. It is a wonderful book and I had so much fun talking to Bill Marx about it. I hope you have fun listening!
