About the Author

No one else is better equipped to tell the history than Jack Drury, who became close friends with these sports and entertainment icons through his Fort Lauderdale-based marketing and public relations firms founded in 1962. Rubbing elbows with these top personalities, Jack was immersed in the glamour and glitz now documented in this volume with many never-before-seen photographs from Jack's private collection. Through approximately 180 vintage photographs, readers can be a part of these exciting times when Fort Lauderdale was the playground of the stars.
