About the Author
John Glatt is an investigative journalist with more than thirty-five years’ experience and has written twenty-three books. A native of London, England, Glatt left school at sixteen and worked in a variety of jobs—including tea boy and messenger for B. Feldman & Co. music publisher in SoHo, where he once met Albert Grossman and The Band when they came into the office.
He then joined a small weekly newspaper outside London, where he honed his keen news sense. Over the next few years, he freelanced for many national English newspapers, including the Daily Express, the Sunday People, the Daily Mail, and Woman Magazine.
