Comedian Dobie Maxwell has written his life story. Entitled "Monkey In The Middle," the book is being released next month by the Chicago-based Eckhartz Press. Pre-orders are now being taken, with the book expected to be shipped on March 14th. In addition to being a top Midwestern stand-up comic (nicknamed "Mr. Lucky"), Maxwell has also spent his fair share of time working in Chicago radio.

A few years later, he became one of "Jerry's Kidders," heard weekly on Jerry Agar's radio shows on WLS-AM, and later WGN-AM. Maxwell also worked in radio in Lansing, Milwaukee, Kenosha, Reno, and Salt Lake City.
