Leslie Jones is the latest comedian to bring her life story to the page. In “Leslie F*cking Jones,” out Sept. 19, the Emmy-nominated comedian and “Saturday Night Live” alum writes about her journey to Hollywood — from her childhood in the South and her early stand-up days to the craziest behind-the-scenes antics on “Ghostbusters,” “Supermaket Sweep” and “The Daily Show.” The cover of the book features a black-and-white childhood photo of Jones flashing a wide grin at the camera and holding a wired microphone, foreshadowing her future career.
