On December 4, 2021, my husband Dale and I hosted an early breakfast and book signing with Brian Kilmeade, co-host of Fox & Friends and author of the bestselling novel “The President and the Freedom Fighter” at our home in Sawgrass Country Club.
Brian Kilmeade has written seven best-selling novels and this event sold out within days of sending out invitations to friends in our community. Over 200 books were pre- sold and all who attended had the opportunity to meet this leading nationally syndicated radio host, New York Times bestselling author, Fox & friends co- host, and do some early Christmas shopping!
Brian gave a wonderful talk on a beautiful Florida day in a perfect outdoor setting. The best-selling author was joined by his wife, Dawn, who celebrated their 27th anniversary the night before with a tribute and flowers at the sold-out Ponte Vedra Concert Hall. Brian’s childhood friends -- Pat and Lisa O’Rourke and Rick and Cecilla Fatscher from Long Island – joined in the lively discussion along with Brian’s ace producer from FOX, Alyson Mansfield. This engaging author shared details on the history, inspiration and development of the characters in his sixth historical novel. This genuine and natural speaker made quite a connection to his audience, going from table to table posing for photos and signing their books.
In the words of Dr. Ben Carson, “The President and the Freedom Fighter” is “a riveting page turner that illuminates the fascinating and history-altering relationship between President Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass.”
In addition to reading his books and watching the “Fox & Friends” morning show, you can tune into “The Brian Kilmeade Show “on 104.5FM WOKV radio weekdays from 9 a.m. to noon.
