In 1974 the classic Alice Cooper group disbanded. While Alice continued solo, it was the original lineup that released a steady stream of chart topping hits that continue to be played on the radio today. From “Schools Out,” “I’m Eighteen,” and “No More Mr. Nice Guy” to “Billion Dollar Babies,” “Elected,” and “Under My Wheels” — the original band didn’t just shock — they rode the top of the charts!

We talked about her prize-winning book, her other research, and writing untold stories. She also told us why a rice field is a historical document. A fascinating conversation!
