1. Dr. Seuss
Theodor Seuss Geisel was an interesting guy. Besides his
legendary career writing children’s books, he also drew political cartoons
during World War II and won an Oscar making documentary films for the U.S.
Army. But his personal life was tricky: His wife Helen was so distraught over an
affair that she committed suicide -- not exactly the rainbow world his readers saw.
This could be a meaty role for someone like Mandy Patinkin to sink his teeth
into.
