The FBI and Hollywood: Controversy Continues

Although my Celebrity Secrets books mainly deals with the antagonistic relationship that the world of Hollywood had with the FBI in the 1940s, 50s, 60s and 70s, as this story demonstrates, not a lot has changed in the 21st Century...

The New York Times on Celebrity Secrets

Over the weekend, the New York Times published a good review of my Celebrity Secrets book. The reviewer, Dave Itzkoff, wrote in part: "...Redfern's book paints a progressively damning portrait of a government obsessed with pop culture's power and paranoid about controlling its message, as unnerved by the possibility of a riot breaking out at a Beatles concert as it is by the thought of Rock Hudson portraying an F.B.I. agent in a motion picture."

Asheville Gets Paranormal Tour in September: Jim Marrs, Nick Redfern, Joshua P. WarrenAsheville, N.C. (September, 2007) --For one night, the world's greatest mysteries converge on Asheville, North Carolina, via three of the country's most notable experts on the weird.

Jim Marrs, Nick Redfern, and Joshua P. Warren make the second stop on their "Dark 30" Tour, which will delve into ghosts, UFOs, strange creatures, conspiracies and secret societies on Saturday, September 29, 2007, 1 p.m., in the Asheville Pizza & Brewing Company, 675 Merrimon Avenue.

The ten-hour-event is designed as the most comprehensive presentation on these controversial subjects ever produced."The concept was simple," says Warren, event Producer. "Let's take the biggest, most critical questions of our lifetimes and bluntly address them face-to-face with the best experts. There are restrictions on what we can say through TV, radio, and other media. But in person, we can finally tell the blatant truth. Some attendees will be uncomfortable, others will be elated. But we're frustrated, and we're ready to talk."

The trio is no stranger to censorship. Marrs, Redfern and Warren all investigated accounts of high strangeness in Roswell, NM, in 2005, and were shocked by the subsequent media cover-up that continues to this day. In addition to individual programs, the three will take the stage together in an open panel discussion on what really happened in Roswell, including new details never before made public.

"We're staking our reputations on this event," Warren stresses. "This is the only way to reach the public without intervention." Jim Marrs is a New York Times best-selling author, whose book "Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy," was a basis for the Oliver Stone film "JFK." His newest books are "The Terror Conspiracy: Deception, 9/11, and the Loss of Liberty" and "Psi Spies: The True Story of America's Psychic Warfare Program." He will speak on conspiracies and secret societies from the dawn of mankind to present day.

British native Nick Redfern is the author of numerous books including "Three Men Seeking Monsters," and "On the Trail of the Saucer Spies: UFOs and Government Surveillance." He will present on UFOs and strange creatures (known as cryptids), plus government files on the rich and famous.

Joshua P. Warren, host of Clear Channel's "Speaking of Strange," is the author of numerous books including "How to Hunt Ghosts," and his newest, "Pet Ghosts: Animal Encounters from Beyond the Grave." He will speak on ghostly phenomena and ESP, revealing the most amazing new photos and videos captured.

The event debuted in Kansas City, MO last December. The tour's second stop is Asheville, North Carolina, Warren's home town. It will be the first trip to Asheville for Jim Marrs and Nick Redfern, both now residents of Texas.

In addition to individual presentations and the panel discussion, the program includes a book signing and more.Less than 120 seats are available.Tickets are $55 per person in advance, and must be purchased via http://www.dark30tour.com/ online.Tickets will be $60 per person at the door, if space is available.
