Description

The Beatles and the H-bomb: two iconic milestones of the 20th Century and I was there!

As CBS Press Representative on "The Ed Sullivan Show," I welcomed the Beatles at the airport on their first trip to the United States -- and, despite my conventional haircut, was identified as one of the Beatles in photographs published around the globe!

As an army draftee, I was sent to the South Pacific for the 17 tests of Operation Redwing, the deadliest H-Bomb series ever. I watched mushroom clouds up close, a human guinea pig in a nuclear world where the F words were Fallout and Fireball.

My two Memoirs of the 20th Century were originally published in hard cover and both were national bestsellers:

THE ATOMIC TIMES: My H-Bomb Year at the Pacific Proving Ground

SHOCKING, FUNNY, SAD, RAUNCHY!
Catch-22 with radiation! Area 51 meets Dr. Strangelove!

"THE ATOMIC TIMES is a gripping memoir leavened by humor, loyalty and pride of accomplishment. A tribute to the resilience, courage and patriotism of the American soldier."
-- Henry Kissinger

ALWAYS ON SUNDAY: An Inside View of Ed Sullivan, the Beatles, Elvis, Sinatra and Ed's Other Guests

"One of the most intriguing show business books to come along in a long time. It's great, very well written and tells it like it is. I knew Sullivan for years and consider Michael Harris' book an accurate sketch of a complex man. Well done!"
-- Chicago Sun Times

"Honestly told... with remarkable frankness and genuine inside knowledge. In the field of show business biographies, ALWAYS ON SUNDAY has secured a place on the shelf reserved for the very best."
-- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
