GRANDISSIMO is here!

So excited to announce the release of “Grandissimo: The First Emperor of Las Vegas” – a classic Vegas tale of Jay Sarno, the man who created Caesars Palace and Circus Circus, and features stories of Frank Sinatra, Jimmy Hoffa, Howard Hughes, and Evel Knievel.

I was honored to have the opportunity to work with David G. Schwartz, who wrote this excellent book and published it after a successful Kickstarter campaign. David is the Director of the Center for Gaming Research at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, a gaming expert, historian, and storyteller.

I both narrated and produced this audiobook version, and used the acx service to get it up on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes. What’s more, the next episode of This American Wife will feature stories from David and others on classic Las Vegas.

I love this story, and I think you will, too! Check it out here:

Welcome to the new website!

Welcome to the new website! Excited to share this with the world. Kathy Osborne did an amazing job designing this, and pulling together all the different parts into one unified whole.

Lots going on! A month later, “Upstairs at the White House” is still on the NY Times bestseller list. It made #2 there and #1 on Amazon. I narrated this book back in September, so it’s great to see it now get all this recognition. I have some new audiobooks coming, as well – including my first work of military history, titled, The Battle of Barrosa 1811, and the true crime tale, “The Murder of Marilyn Monroe: Case Closed,” which features some new evidence and interviews exploring Monroe’s mysterious demise. Both of those books should be coming out in June.

Over at This American Wife, our next episode will feature an interview with Richard Kramer, who has written and directed many episodes of Thirtysomething and My So Called Life. He talks about his book These Things Happen, and author Pam Ribon tells tales from her new memoir Notes to Boys. This episode is coming out at the end of May.

More soon!
