Biographies and censorship

[Anita Beaman <alibrarylover@YAHOO.COM>]

Greetings all,
  One of our HS English teachers has asked me to do a
booktalk combining Banned Book Week/cesorship with
biographies and careers.  He wants his students to
choose a biography to read to learn about the
subject's career.  We don't have enough biographies
that have been banned, so my idea is to booktalk
biographies about people whose careers have been
affected by censorship.  So far, I have Galileo,
Charles Darwin and Clarence Darrow.  I know there are
many others, but I'm drawing a blank!  Any
suggestions?

Thanks,
Anita
