Simon & Schuster to Publish Arnold Schwarzenegger's Autobiography

Posted on September 22, 2011

Simon & Schuster has announced it will publish Arnold Schwarzenegger's autobiography. The working title is Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story. It will be published globally in October 2012.

The book will cover Schwarzenegger's journey to the U.S., his bodybuilding career, his cinema career and his political career. Simon & Schuster does not say the book will cover the former California Governor's infidelity and love child in its release. The New York Times reports that a spokeswoman for Simon & Schuster declined to comment on whether Schwarznegger would mention steroid use or infidelities in the autobiography.

Simon & Schuster publisher Jonathan Karp says, "Truly, Arnold is one of the most fascinating figures of our time, and one of the greatest success stories in the world. Nobody has a life story even close to his. To go from poor immigrant to world class athlete to the biggest movie star in the world to Governor of California is an incredible journey."
