Frank Abagnale

"Known as "the Skywayman" and "the World's Greatest Con Artist," Frank Abagnale created a fantastic criminal career out of his petty crimes. He inspired the book Catch Me If You Can and the movie of the same name . . . The character that Abagnale inspired committed two daring escapes from custody, but in reality, Abagnale escaped only onec, from Cobb County Jail in Georgia. He was re-captured two days later. He was able to create a legitimate business out of his petty crimes"--Adapted from back cover.
