ALEX HALEY
Small black and white publicity photograph of Alex Haley wearing a
suit and tie with his hands folded in front of him.
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Louis Novacheck/Best
wishes!/Alex Haley". B/w, 4x4¾. 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, Alex Haley (1921-1992) 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. 2 stray ink marks at upper
right background. Fine condition.
