Here are a few non-political biographies and autobiographies that I have really enjoyed:
Life with Picasso by Francoise Gilot (Picasso's lover for 10 years - excellent story!)
The Life and Times of Mordecai Richler by Charles Foran
Searching for Bobby Orr by Steven Brunt (One of the best sports biographies and better than Orr's autobiography)
Northern Light: The Enduring Mystery of Tom Thomson and the Women Who Loved Him by Roy MacGregor.
The Devil in the Kitchen: Sex, Pain, Madness and the Making of a Great Chef by Marco Pierre White. I've read lots of chef bios and autobios and enjoyed this one the most.
