Decent biography though a bit over critical. I mean the guy doesn't even like King Of Comedy?!

Well, I only kept at this one for as long as I did because it was Robert De Niro. But it was not well-written at all. I think that I'm going to have to wait until he dies (hopefully for a long long long long time) before a decent biography comes out. I liked reading about how all his films came together and how he worked his craft, but it did things like, say, he took a class with an African-American (was the guy his teacher, his class-mate? I don't know), and this is the reason he hung out with black people for the rest of his life. What? Said absolutely nothing about the guy. Another one was that he had a pretty, vapid girlfriend at one point, said nothing about the relationship except that this was the reason he tended to marry trophy wives. Okaaay. Does anyone here know of a good biography on him? Cause I'm still interested.
