LAS VEGAS, Oct. 22, 2009 — AuthorHouse, the leading provider of self publishing and marketing services for authors around the globe, will host the world's foremost mentalist, The Amazing Kreskin, for a free signing of his latest book Kreskin Confidential: The World's Greatest Mentalist Speaks Out, Friday, Oct. 23 from 12:30 – 1:30 p.m. PDT in booth 824 at the AARP Vegas@50+ convention at the Sands Expo Center.
Kreskin Confidential, which was released by AuthorHouse in April 2009, is Kreskin's reflection upon his nearly fifty-year career, during which he's entertained literally millions of people, in virtually every medium, all over the world. A regular on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in the 1970s and 1980s, Kreskin has made a recent return to late night with several appearances on NBC's Late Night hosted by Jimmy Fallon.
In March 2009, the film The Great Buck Howard, based on Kreskin's career, debuted in North American theaters. Kreskin, the author of more than 15 previous books, chose to self publish Kreskin Confidential to complement the release of the film.
"The reason for my self publishing was initially that of time pressure. I've had many publishers through the years, some of which have taken my books around the world, but the impetus of writing my book was the awareness that the Tom Hanks movie (The Great Buck Howard) was being released within months," Kreskin said. "I finally decided that the movie would open a lot of questions that I could not answer on all the talk shows and scores upon scores of newspaper interviews that I would do related to the movie. It made me make a decision, with only a few weeks' timeframe to publish the book on my own, release it, and promote the book in my own way for my media appearances and live concerts around the world."
