So I got this free sample issue in the mail, but there was this obituary of Charles Webb on page 35. Charles Webb wrote the novel "The Graduate" which got turned into a movie in 1967. Quote: "With his wife, he embarked on a life of nomadic poverty, shedding possessions and working a string of menial jobs: clerking at a Kmart, picking fruit, and cleaning houses. Homeschooling their two sons, the couple lived in motels and trailer parks and at a nudist colony they managed." I did more research online. According to http://famouspoetsandpoems.com/poets/charles_webb/biography "Fred, an artist, is his wife of 43 years, given name Eve, who shaves her head and calls herself Fred in a show of support "for men named Fred who have low self-esteem."" If anyone is looking to write a biography about Charles Webb, this seems like a promising book to be written!
