Catch Me If You Can - by Frank W. Abagnale Jr.

Book Review, © Copyright 2000, Jim Loy

Frank W. Abagnale "flew" for Pan Am, practiced law for five years in Louisiana (he was an assistant state attorney), was a pediatrician in Georgia, was a very popular sociology professor at BYU. And he did not graduate from high school. He was a con man, and check forger, going by the names Frank Williams, Robert Conrad, Frank Adams, and Robert Monjo. And he is now retired (he advises businesses on fighting white collar crime), having spent time in jail and escaping several times. This is an amusing, fascinating, and disturbing story. I recommend it highly.
