Simone, Nina. (1933-2003). "I Put A Spell On You. The Autobiography of Nina Simone." - SIGNED. New York: Pantheon. 1991. First American Edition, 1st Printing.

Hardcover with dust jacket, 8vo, 6.25 x 9.5 inches, 181 pages. Signed on the front free endpage in black felt tip, “Dr. Nina Simone 1993.” In fine condition, in fine jacket. 

Often compared to Billie Holiday and Edith Piaf, Simone is known as one of the greatest singers of her generation. She recorded forty-three albums, ranging from blues to jazz to folk, and her hits like "I Loves You, Porgy," "My Baby Just Cares for Me," "I Put a Spell on You," and "Mississippi Goddam" have confirmed her as an enduring force in popular music. Her song "Young, Gifted, and Black" became the anthem for the Civil Rights Movement and thrust her beyond international stardom into the center of activism. But such worlds as Simone's are not without their grim valleys: disastrous marriages, arrest and the threat of imprisonment, mental breakdown, poverty, and attempted suicide. With undiminished passion and in her unconquerable voice, this is Nina Simone's powerful memoir of her tempestuous life.
