How great that Mark Bego won the Paris Book Festival Awards 2013 for two books, his latest novel: "Murder at Motor City Records" and "Paperback Novel", about his adventures with Mary Wilson of the Supremes. He has great timing, as "Motown, The Musical" takes Broadway by a storm, and his newest, "Leonardo DiCaprio: Movie Idol", hits the stands as "the great Gatsby" opens! I can't wait to read and see them all!
