Do you know any good biographies/autobiographies I can use for my English Cl?

I need at least three choices on what biography I want to read in my 11th grade English cl. I have to research this person, read the book, and then do a presentation as the person which includes dressing up as that person. I'd rather it be a male person on which the biography is on. No offense to women I was going to do Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi but I dont want to dress up as a woman. Blame society. So far I've only come up with Harvey Milk. I think Human Rights are a pretty interesting topic, along with old movie directors and screenwriters. It can't be a memoir, it has to be a biography or an autobiography. Thank you so much!
