''Songs My Mother Taught Me'' an autobiography by Marlon Brando with Robert Lindsey as co-author, published by Random House in 1994. The book deals with Brando's childhood, his memories of being a struggling actor and of his early relationships with family members and later with other actors, producers, and directors.
