Million Dollar Bill: Clinton shines at publishing convention
Tom Clancy, the novelist and political conservative, declared in a recent interview that Ronald Reagan would "always be my president." But for many in the publishing community, which wrapped up its annual convention Sunday, their president remains Bill Clinton.
His keynote speech Thursday at BookExpo America became a celebration both of Clinton the president and of Clinton the author of "My Life," which comes out June 22 with a first printing 1.5 million.
Clinton's "My Life" has booksellers so worked up that some have dared invoke the "H" word - not Hillary but Harry, Harry Potter.
"It's the only thing I can compare this to," said Carla Cohen, co-owner of Politics & Prose, based in Washington, D.C.
