# How About That! The Life of Mel Allen

Stephen Borelli, baseball editor of USA Today Sports Weekly, discussed his new book, "How About That! The Life of Mel Allen," the first biography of Allen, one of the most famous sports broadcasters in American history. CNN's Larry King praised the volume as "a wonderful book about a wonderful life; I knew and loved Mel Allen and Borelli captures him in full measure." The lecture was co-sponsored by the Center for the Book and the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division.
