Gene Wilder, known to many as either "Young Frankenstein" or "Willy Wonka", is appearing at Boston University's Tsai Performing Center on Wednesday night. He's in town to promote his new auto-biography, "Kiss Me Like a Stranger: My Search for Love and Art," where he hits on all the high (the role of a lifetime in "The Producers") and low points (his third wife, Gilda Radner, dying of ovarian cancer) of his life. While some look at auto-biographies as a tell-all of the Hollywood scene, Wilder tells a more endearing story, which has critics admiring the book.
