Catch Me if You Can by Frank Abagnale with Stan Redding; Unabridged MP3 Audio Book; Narrator Barrett Whitener

Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award

Catch Me If You Can is the true story of Frank W. Abagnale—alias Frank Williams, Robert Conrad, Frank Adams, and Robert Monjo—one of the most daring con men, forgers, imposters, and escape artists in history. In his brief but notorious criminal career, Abagnale donned a pilot’s uniform and copiloted a Pan Am jet, masqueraded as the supervising resident of a hospital, practiced law without a license, passed himself off as a sociology professor, and cashed over $2.5 million in forged checks—all before he was twenty-one. Abagnale lived a sumptuous life on the lam…until the law caught up with him.

Now recognized as the nation’s leading authority on financial foul play, Abagnale is a charming rogue whose hilarious, stranger-than-fiction international escapades and ingenious escapes make Catch Me If You Can an irresistible tale of deceit.

"Zingingly told…richly detailed and winning as the devil."—Kirkus Reviews

"A book that captivates from the first page to the last."—West Coast Review of Books

“Although Abagnale is egotistical and unrepentant, he actually comes across as likeable. He’s abetted in this by Whitener, who has a pleasing guy-next-door kind of voice and delivery.”—Philadelphia Inquirer

“Whitener superbly captures the self-serving con artist who never shows contrition for his acts.”—Booklist

“Barrett Whitener's flawless reading uses all the right emotions and inflections to bring this international criminal to life. Most impressive is how Whitener leaves listeners rooting for Abagnale, whether he is avoiding arrest or escaping from an airplane or prison.”—AudioFile
