Learned to Read: Twelve Great Americans and the Educations That Made
Them." The book was an editor's choice at the Chicago Tribune;
received a starred review from Kirkus calling it "a riveting,
original examination of education inside and outside the classroom";
and was hailed by The Christian Science Monitor as "a terrific book
… rich and thought-provoking."
Wolff has also written "4th of July/Asbury Park: A History of the
Promised Land." He wrote Grammy-nominated liner notes for "The
Complete Sam Cooke and the Soul Stirrers" CD, and his producer
credits include the forthcoming Jonathan Demme documentary about New
Orleans, "Right to Return."
Copies of Wolff's books may be purchased in the gift shop at the
