Autograph Note signed: Alex Haley" , 4x6 card. No place,
1980 December 5. To Irene Hayes. In full: "Warm wishes from the
Roots family!" Already known as the author of a definitive biography of
Malcolm X, which was based on interviews done with the Black leader in "Playboy"
magazine, Haley created a sensation -- and single-handedly launched a new
interest in genealogy -- with his book, Roots. The saga, which traced his
African roots, was first excerpted in "Reader's Digest" before publication in
book form in 1976. The story, which was televised as a successful miniseries in
1977, resulted in a number of awards for Haley, including the National Book
Award, a special Pulitzer Prize and the NAACP's Spingarn Medal as well as
several honorary doctor of letters degrees for his research, which spanned 12
years. He died in 1992. Staple holes at upper left corner. Fine
condition.
