Had a Brain (as in “if I only had a brain” from The Wizard of OZ) is material for an “achievement despite obstacles” memoir, with a twist. In short, I earned a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania despite head trauma and assorted other physical injuries sustained when I was hit by a car. That should be enough for one lifetime. But as I approached the goal of graduating with the Ph.D., the University of Pennsylvania sued me for an outstanding bill that I had already paid!
