Tina Brown Writing Book On the Clintons For Doubleday

Tina Brown, who edited The New Yorker during all but two of Bill Clinton's years in the White House, will write a book about the former President and his wife for Doubleday, it was announced today.

The book will be called The Clinton Chronicles--just like Ms.Brown's last one, which came out this summer, was called The Diana Chronicles. Maybe she is starting a franchise?

Phyllis Grann is the acquiring editor, just like she was on Diana, for which she paid a reported $2 million dollars. The book--which, according to the press release from Doubleday, will explore "not just the enthralling story of the Clintons themselves but the social, political and media context of the times"-- is scheduled for publication in 2010.
