I don't know much about the Marx brothers but found this a very enjoyable and informative read. The author manages to bring objectivity and enough pace to maintain interest, which I reckon is often hard for biographies.

The bio itself raises the nature vs nurture question, as well as the impact of social development skills (or lack of). Fascinating read.
