AceShowbiz - Caitlyn Jenner is going to tell it all. The E! star formerly known as Bruce Jenner is set to co-write a book about her gender transition. She will get help from the Pulitzer-winning journalist, Buzz Bissinger. The tome is expected to be released in spring 2017 via Grand Central Publishing.
"Things have been moving so quickly that it will be nice to slow things down a bit and take the proper time to reflect on this journey," Caitlyn said in a press release. "I couldn't pick a better team, in Grand Central and Buzz, to make sure this story is told with a lot of honesty and care."
Buzz Bissinger helped debut Caitlyn's new identity in the Vanity Fair cover story last June. The journalist is also no stranger to wearing women's clothes. "I've also been open about cross-dressing and certain aspects of gender fluidity, and that created a bond," he told New York Times.
He was approached by Caitlyn to write her book a few months after the VF article was published. "I made it clear to her before I agreed that everything has to be on the table, nothing can be left out, and I'm going to be interviewing dozens of other people," he explained. "It's her book, but it's going to be reported out to keep her honest. She's been incredibly open, and I think it has the potential to be a really important book."
