Dave Pratt books, LEGENDARY CBS RADIO HOST PENS MEMOIR FOR CHARITY Book proceeds to benefit American Cancer Society PHOENIX, AZ – To express his undying gratitude to the American Cancer Society for its role in his successful battle against cancer, Dave Pratt, renowned CBS radio host of Dave Pratt in the Morning on KMLE Country 108 in Phoenix, will donate to the organization proceeds from the sales of his soon-to-be released memoir, Dave Pratt, Behind the Mic: 30 Years in Radio. Although only 46, Pratt has been honored with more than 100 national and local awards, topped ratings in three different formats, helped raise millions of dollars for charity and become one of the most successful personalities in the nation, earning him “legendary” status in the radio industry. For over 30 decades, “The Morning Mayor” has lived his dream.But just as compelling as his rise to fame and fortune was Pratt's triumphant battle with prostate cancer, which he shares with readers in Dave Pratt, Behind the Mic. Occasionally tear-jerking, sometimes funny, but always sincere, Pratt's book takes readers on a ride with the man who morphed from small-town boy to one of the most prolific names in radio history.Dave Pratt, Behind the Mic is a moving, personal account of how Pratt maintained his integrity in a high-life atmosphere, never sacrificing his personal character. He proves that an incredibly successful career and a deep love for family can find balance in one of entertainment's most turbulent industries. Pratt shares the ups and downs of 30 years in radio and how when it seemed like nothing could take him down, he was struck with cancer. Then, Pratt reveals how his family and the loyalty of his listeners became his driving force, helping him fight the biggest battle of his life – and win! “Like Jimmy Buffet, Dave Pratt does an impressive job of making the transition from rock and country star to book author. This is a story that's definitely worth reading.” – Robert Stieve, editor, Arizona Highways Proceeds from the sales of Pratt's book, which is being nationally published by Arizona's Five Star Publications, will be donated to the American Cancer Society. In fact, Pratt is so intent on raising money for the cause that he vows not to give away any books, not even to his own mother! “She insists on buying her own copy and is proud that our family is helping such a great cause. I have confidence that my listeners and readers will feel the same,” says Pratt, who promises that not one copy of his book will be given away on or off of the air. If he personally gives one of his books to a friend or a loved one, he says he will personally buy it.For more information on Dave Pratt, Behind the Mic: 30 Years in Radio (hardcover, $30 retail, ISBN: 978-1-58985-109-2) visit www.FiveStarPublications.com, email
