Not really a library story, but you’ve got to admit, this true story would make a good novella or one-act play.
According to the AP, “Paul Vance, the man who co-wrote the song “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini” had the unsettling experience this week of reading his own obituary, the result of an impostor who went through life claiming to be the author of the 1960s smash hit.” The imposter even fooled his widow, who was shocked to find out that her husband had been lying to her about his authorship for over 30 years.
