The Hollywood Reporter recently put him on their list of Hollywood’s 25 Most Powerful Authors. Brad has been on the What’s UP Radio Program many times over the years. It is an honor to have him with us again today.

His newest novel The President’s Shadow  will undoubtedly make it to the top of the New York Times list. But, how did Brad get to be such a great author? It all began back in 8th grade English class. He is also a lover of history, so he combined them both! Listen in as Brad tells his story.

Brad also discusses how he and George and Barbara Bush became great friends after the former President requested a signed copy of one of his books! If you look at pictures from Barbara’s recent 90th birthday celebration, you’ll see Brad standing next to her as she blows out her candles! You don’t want to miss the rest of this story, either!

Brad also gives a sneak peek into the beginning of his newest book The President’s Shadow  and how he does research for each of his books. One secret service agent revealed that President Reagan carried a gun and another disclosed the fact that there are more floors in the White House under the basement!

NOTE: Brad has some new children’s book coming out soon, including I am Helen Keller which will have real brail included so your kids and grandkids can feel it! So exciting!
