John Feinstein

John Feinstein was born in New York City on July 28, 1956. I have read his book called Vanishing Act and it is one of my favorite books to this day. He has also written the two top best-selling non-fiction sports books in history, A Good Walk Spoiled and A Season on the Brink. Feinstein's father had been very involved in the arts, having been the General Manager of the Washington National Opera for fifteen years. I found a website called Feinstein On The Brink and it is a cool blog involving John Feinstein. He is a member of the U.S. Basketball Writer's Association, U.S. Tennis Writer's Association as Vice President, National Sportscasters, and Sportswriters Association. Feinstein achieved honors awards in U.S. Basketball Writer's Association for five straight years. For my book, Are You Kidding Me John met Rocco in the locker room at a tournament and became great friends with him ever since. John Feinstein has visiited with a lot of different players from different sports and has written stories about them.
