Diane Keaton is one of Hollywoods top leading ladies. She also writes books. She has one coming out on Spanish colonial architecture, and another on scrapbooks which she's cowriting with a friend.

Why scrapbooks? Well, it seems that Keaton is fascinated by them and has collected hundreds.

"I've noticed that scrapbooks are really people's way of visually documenting their lives and interests with things that compel them. People who aren't really artists who have a need to express themselves visually. We collected all these scrapbooks from various sources and we picked the imagery that we thought was really outstanding -- that was eye-grabbing. It's kind of poetic -- like anonymous art in a way, yet very personal."

The anthology will feature scrapbooks dating back 70 years. The contents will range from children's scrapbooks, which are relatively common, to scrapbooks that reflect one person's obsession.
