Professional wrestler Mick Foley ("Mankind") really did write his three
books (HAVE A NICE DAY; FOLEY IS GOOD; and a children's book whose
title I've forgotten) and the first two are actually quite good.
Several other professional wrestlers (including The Rock, Joannie
"Chyna" Laurer, and Bill Goldberg) have recently had books also come
out under their bylines. I suspect these were ghosted, but I could
be wrong. (Of course, many of the books already listed as being "by"

Maybe not "officially" compiled as a booklist on the website - but in September of 2000 there are 2 (long) posts of titles that were collected in response to a similar question (under the subject line "You Know Them Better For....") The complete list appears on these dates:
9/27/00 and 9/29/00. (There were 73 postings in this thread all together.)

That /was/ compiled as an "official" booklist -- The title
(You Know Them Better As...) didn't mean anything to me so I didn't
read the list. I didn't associate it with celebrity or famous
people. Maybe "celebrity" should be in the title. Hopefully it will
be part of the title (not subtitle) in the new list compiled from
the current suggestions.
http://www.webrary.org/rs/flbklists/Youknow.html
(The older list, compiled Oct. 2000, does have a subtitle of
"Celebrities of All Stripes Who Have Also Tried their Hand at
Writing Fiction" but that's not visible on the menu page, which
lists dozens of booklists.)

But I think there was a similar thread within the last two years.
