Review
Finding Fish reads like a great work of fiction, moving me alternately to tears and laughter, sorrow and joy, and making me forget at times that the story is astonishingly true (Denzel Washington ?This stunning autobiography rises above the success fables from survivors of America?s inner cities...this engrossing book is a classic? Publisher?s Weekly ?Fisher?s gripping memoir is an inspiring story of one man?s journey, a tale o as does his retroactive tenderness toward the boy no one else loved? Time)
About the Author

When Antwone Fisher told Black his life story, Black was so bowled over with what he heard that he paid Fisher a salary to write his autobiography.
