Who should I read about for school?

I'm so excited. I start high school in a couple weeks and I am supposed to read a biography or autobiography and be ready to talk or write about it on the first day. I have a cruise for a full week starting Friday and then a week after that then school. I don't know who to read about and I cant find any short books. I don't want a baby book, but just a short one like Night by Eli Wiesel. I read that last school year so I probably dont wanna read that again. But it has to be nonboring lol like that book cuz i just cant read boring books. I procrastinate and then I wont be finished with it the first day. But do you know any good biographys and also do you think i should maybe just read Night?
