Moonwalk (book)
''Moonwalk'' is a 1988 autobiography written by American recording artist Michael Jackson. The book was first published by Doubleday on February 1, 1988, five months after the release of Jackson's 1987 ''Bad'' album, and named after Jackson's signature dance move, the moonwalk. The book was edited by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and reached number one on the ''New York Times Best Seller list''. The book was reissued by Doubleday on October 13, 2009 following Jackson's death on June 25, 2009.
== Production ==
The first manuscript of the book was written by Robert Hilburn and was refused by the publishers, Doubleday, because it lacked "juicy details".〔 A second manuscript was written by Stephen Davis, which Jackson drastically edited.〔 Jackson finally decided to write the book himself, with help from Shaye Areheart (although there were reports that Areheart later quit after Jackson threw a snake at her).〔Campbell (1993), p. 197〕 Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis edited the book and wrote a three paragraph introduction.〔McDowell, Edwin. ("Michael Jackson writes his story" ), ''The New York Times'', 18 April 1988.〕
Due to the public interest in Jackson, ''Moonwalk'' was prepared for publication in secret. Relatives of Doubleday employees were hired as couriers, to deliver portions of the book from the company's head office in Manhattan to the printing plant in Fairfield, Pennsylvania.〔 At the printing plant, the book was given the code name "Neil Armstrong", after the first "moonwalker".〔
