I had only acted on camera in a couple of TV shows and commercials, so all of thisthe process of making movieswas totally new and absolutely fascinating. JACK ANGEL, son of a Greek immigrant, reinvented himself many timesfrom a poor student to a college graduate; from enlisted man to officer in the army during the Korean War, attending Army Ranger School; and from an eighteen-year career in radio as one of the nations top disc jockeys to a career as a Hollywood actor concentrating on voice-overs. Going to Hollywood allowed him to really hit his stride, and he found himself working on animation projects for the Walt Disney Co., Pixar Studios, Marvel, Hanna/Barbera, Fox, and several others. In this memoir, Angel recalls his adventures in this informative, funny, and insightful view of Hollywood and the entertainment business. A few highlights include his interactions with director Steven Spielberg and John Lasseter, the creative head of Pixar Studios. He also spent three years as a promo announcer with The Tonight Show, starring Johnny Carson. He pays homage to his father, who came to America in the early twentieth century, became famous as the Bean King in Central California, and survived the Great Depression while raising three sons. Jack Angels life story is not only a tale of personal reinvention, but also an uplift ing American Dream story that spans a hundred years.

On the morning of October 25, 1957, a group of men enter the barbershop of the Park Sheraton Hotel on 55th Street and Seventh Avenue and approach the figure in the brown suit sitting in Chair 4. A minute later, Albert Anastasia lies on the floor in a pool of blood. The dramatic assassination of the head of Murder, Incorporated captures the imagination of the press, as pictures of the corpse adorn front pages nationwide. But for Jack Pagano, a seventeen year-old high school football hero with a penchant for Shakespeare's history plays, the episode has special relevance. Because a little over a week before, completely out of the blue, Anastasia came into his life to announce that Jack was his son. It seems that Rip Collins, Jack's quasi-guardian, has been training Jack for more than just the college football league. Shortly after the shooting, Jack is given a letter from his father that, in extraordinarily candid and detailed terms, lays out Anastasia's view of the world, and outlines his plans for his son. Under Rip's tutelage, as well as the watchful eye of his father's close associates Meyer Lansky and Frank Costello, now is the time for Jack to inherit his dark legacy. Based on real events, and peopled with dozens of historical characters, Family Legacy takes us on a fascinating and eye-opening journey that criss-crosses through the interconnected worlds of the Mafia, law enforcement, and the business and political classes of the late fifties and early sixties, to build to a shattering and revelatory climax in Dallas, Texas on the morning of November 22, 1963.

Texas Jack: America’s First Cowboy Star is a biography of John B. “Texas Jack” Omohundro, the first well-known cowboy in America. A Confederate scout and spy from Virginia, Jack left for Texas within weeks of Lee’s surrender at Appomattox. In Texas, he became first a cowboy and then a trail boss, jobs that would inform the rest of his life. Jack lead cattle on the Chisholm and Goodnight-Loving trails to New Mexico, California, Kansas and Nebraska. In 1868 he met James B. “Wild Bill” Hickok in Kansas and then William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody in Nebraska at the end of the first major cattle drive to North Platte. Texas Jack and Buffalo Bill became friends, and soon the scout and the cowboy became the subjects of a series of dime novels written by Ned Buntline.
