Michael Munn

Michael Munn is a British author[1] and film historian.[2] He lives in Sudbury, Suffolk.

His biography of Steve McQueen has been described as preposterous,[3] and doubt cast on his biographies of Frank Sinatra, John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Sir Laurence Olivier, Richard Burton, and David Niven.[4]
