In His Own Words
1988 marked the release of Jackson's first autobiography, Moonwalk, which he spent four years writing. In it, he recalled his abusive childhood, his experiences with his brothers in The Jackson 5 and his many body changes, which he 'fessed up were the result of surgeries, puberty, a vegetarian diet, a hairstyle change and stage lighting. The book was a hit on the New York Times bestsellers list, and even spawned a movie, Moonwalker, that starred Jackson, Sean Lennon and Joe Pesci.
