FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
“Beating the Odds in Las vegas and in Life”
Just Released
by Roosevelt Toston
Las Vegas, Nevada – July 2009 – Roosevelt Toston has recently thrown his hat into the ring as one of Las Vegas’ most celebrated new authors. BEATING THE ODDS in Las Vegas and in Life (ISBN #: 978-0-615-30304-8/ $17.99, 126 pages, Trade paperback / The Toston Group) is a biographical roadmap that takes the reader into Roosevelt Toston’s personal spotlight.
BEATING THE ODDS in Las Vegas and in Life is the story of the son of a sharecropper in the deep South who persevered through many prejudices and rose above the obstacles to become the first African American Television News Anchor in the state of Nevada. It’s the story of a poor boy from a tiny rural village that lost both parents before the age of fifteen but never gave up on his dreams. It’s is the story that needs to be told for young people today and for generations to come.
KORK-TV-3 was looking for applicants to train as a cameraman/reporter. No experience was necessary. The News Director said I had a flare for writing and the job was mine. . Never, when I was going through the ups and downs of broadcasting, did I think of myself as a trailblazer. It was long after I left the industry that the appellation was pinned on me. - Roosevelt Toston
