Dave Pelzer
David James Pelzer (born December 29, 1960) is an American author of several
autobiographical and self-help books. His 1995
memoir of
childhood abuse, ''A Child Called "It": One Child's Courage to Survive'', was listed on
''The New York Times'' Best Seller list for several years, and in 5 years had sold at least 1.6 million copies. The book brought Pelzer fame, and has also been a source of controversy, with accusations of several events being fabricated coming from both family members and journalists.
