Book Signing
Where the iconic diving horse act took place for nearly 50 years and is the subject of my memoir THE LAST DIVING HORSE IN AMERICA. After the act was shuttered in 1978, I had the privilege of keeping the last horse, Gamal, for the rest of his days.
Many of the gang who appeared on the pier back in the day will also be there: the Tony Grant Kids, the Ed Hurst Dancers, Jim Craine’s All-Star Band, and even some of the girls who rode the diving horses!
I will donate 100% of the proceeds from my book sales to benefit Make Peace With Animals. Cash, checks, and PayPal enthusiastically accepted.
Interview
We’ll be chatting about my book THE LAST DIVING HORSE IN AMERICA.
