Published works

  • The Official Elvis Presley Commemorative Album (1997)
  • Don't Forget Me - The Eddie Cochran Story (2000)[6] Library Journal found it a bit dull due to Cochran's quiet life and pleasant personality.[7]
  • Elvis Fashion: From Memphis To Vegas (2003)[8][9] A "beautiful coffee-table volume" produced in collaboration with Elvis's estate.[10] The tone is light, but Goldmine found a few errors, despite praising it as the first book to cover Elvis's clothes through his entire career.[11]
  • Travellers' Las Vegas (2004)
