Pulitzer Prize winning American novelist and all around old-school hard-ass, Norman Mailer is an interesting character. Mailer had an unsuccessful run for New York City Mayor in 1969 (see original campaign poster below), proposing a New York City secession and creating a 51st state. He was also married 6 times and stabbed one of his wives with a penknife at a party. Whatever your opinion is on him, he definitely was not afraid to speak his mind and call it the way he saw it. Rest in peace, Norman.
