Conference program containing details of the paper
Murray Silver is a fifth generation Savannahian. At age 16, he began promoting rock concerts in Atlanta, bringing many future super-groups to the city for the first time. In 1982, Murray published his first book, Great balls of Fire: The uncensored Story of Jerry Lee Lewis, which was adapted to the big screen in 1989. The following year he undertook the autobiography of Dr. George Nichopoulos, personal physician to Elvis Presley and the man widely regarded for the singers death. Their book, Who Killed Elvis Presley? turned into an international scandal before it could be published and remains in limbo.
