I Love Rock N' Roll Books

Todd Oldham Joan Jett (2010)

The first serious Joan Jett biography is heavy on pictures and light on new information about the legendary rocker, but that's not too surprising for a celebrity biography that's partially promoting a film (the 2010 biopic The Runaways).

Mina Carson, Tina Lewis, Susan Shaw Girls Rock: Fifty Years of Women Making Music (2004)

The opening chapter of this book features Joan Jett and the Runaways talking about their experiences as an all-girl rock get-up in the 1970s.
