As well as specifying the binding path in your XAML you have to bind your collection to the ListBox.

C#

ObservableCollection myCollection = new ObservableCollection();
MyListBox.DataContext = myCollection;

The XAML you have used won't be particularly useful unless you have overriden the ToString method on MyClass. Even though you say you're not are you sure it's not a property of MyClass that you want to bind to? I can't see why you'd want to bind directly to a collection object.
