Amy Winehouse’s family set up the Foundation in the singer’s name shortly after her tragic death in 2011 at age 27. Amy, My Daughter, a biography written by her father Mitch Winehouse, was released in 2012 by HarperCollins. All proceeds from the 320-page book — a No.1 Sunday Times best-seller — go to The Amy Winehouse Foundation, which “works to prevent the effects of drug and alcohol misuse on young people,” he writes on the website. “We also aim to support, inform and inspire vulnerable and disadvantaged young people to help them reach their full potential.” A different photo appears on the cover, depending on the market. — K.B.
