“This has been the most useful reference book for me since the Handyman’s guide to Decks and Landscaping.
The Mrs. has been producing a community event for 17 years and has begged, borrowed, and schmoozed around town for funding every year to raise money for the Christmas for Kids event she puts on. Last year, she put me in charge and the first thing I did was skim through the Celebrity Black Book and pick out several celebrities and contacted them for donations.
I received within the first week 12 separate pictures with autographs from Johnny Depp, James Garner, Judi Dench, Doris Day, Fess Parker, Julie Newmar, and Al Pacino, to name a few. And more came through over the next several months. After contacting the local VFW, I arranged for an auction and, a few months later, had raised over $6,000.00 for my wife’s charity.
The book is not gloriously written, but it is accurate and concise and in my case, literally a lifesaver as we made sure over 500 underprivileged children had gifts for Christmas AND that many families had heat in their homes for the winter season.
The Celebrity Black Book is a fine compendium of information. Who would YOU like to contact?”
