Frank's adult life was pretty much lived in the shadow of his wife, author and philosopher Ayn Rand. So for biographical information about him, one might consider referring to books primarily about her. The first one, a more personal account, is Barbara Branden's The Passion of Ayn Rand. The second, a more objective and dispassionate biography, is Anne Heller's Ayn Rand and the World She Made. Both books are highly recommended. T.N.
