Head and heart of a well-known author are described in "Anatomy of Me," the autobiography of Fannie Hurst. In this new book, published by Doubleday, the popular writer of numerous short stories and two dozen books tells of the glittering personalities who were part of her social world, and of the dimmer, but never dull, "little people" upon whose way of life she cast an affectionate light in her writings. The author lives in New York, where she conducts a daily television show, "The Fannie Hurst Showcase."
