Sly Stallone


Sylvester Stallone came to my photo exhibit and book signing of "THE MAKING OF THE LORDS OF FLATBUSH" at the Celebrity Vault Gallery in Beverly Hills on May 15th. He couldn't have been more gracious. Not only did he come at promptly 6:00, he stayed until after 7:00. He signed autographs, posed for pictures and gave me the greatest praise for discovering him back when we made the movie. He also bought 80% of the photos that were being exhibited. He was so open and approachable and I think many people were surprised by how friendly he was. I greatly appreciate his coming, but more than that, his friendship and loyalty. I was beaming that night and for the followings days. Sly also granted an on camera interview that my publisher Michael Baumohl of Book Publishers Internaitonal will be posting on YouTube as well as various entertainment TV & web shows. I'll keep you posted as to dates and times.
