Biography About Porfirio Rubirosa to Launch During the 4th Annual New York Dominican Book Fair

Sherman Oaks, CA (PRWEB) September 15, 2010

Authors Isabella and Marty Wall announced today the launching of PERSIGUIENDO A RUBIROSA at the 4th Annual Dominican Book Fair in New York City October 1-3 2010. The recent Spanish version of CHASING RUBI, the first English biography about the Dominican Diplomat-Playboy and most prolific gigolo of the 20th century. The book launch coincides with the re-release of the History Channel International/ BIO Channels Rubirosa documentary, in which the authors are featured.

The official launch will take place in an intimate event at 809 Lounge in Manhattan, where Rubirosa admirers will be able to obtain autographed copies of the book, enjoy a toast by rum Brugal and a special menu of Rubirosas favorite dishes. Additionally there will be an art exhibit by renowned Hollywood Muralist and fellow Dominican, Robert Maja entitled THE REPUBLIC OF RUBIROSA inspired by the book Chasing Rubi. The 809 Lounge will present the music and the glamour of Rubirosas period from the late 40s to mid 60s and will screen clips from the History Channel documentary.

This investigative project has taken us 20 plus years including 8 years to obtain his 900 page FBI file. The Spanish version includes new FBI documents and photography and is selling out bookstores in Santo Domingo. We are very excited to bring our story to New York said co-author Marty Wall.

The book is narrated in part by Rubirosa himself through his obscure memoirs and supported by the facts contained in the FBI files. Rubirosa story puts him front and center of historical moments and players like, the Bay of Pigs, Castro, JFK, Frank Sinatra and Peter Lawford highlighting anecdotes of espionage, conspiracy, politics, assassinations and romances on the stage of the high-life and the jet-set of the 40s - 60s. In the book many rumors circulating about Rubirosa are either put to rest or confirmed including being an inspiration for the James Bond character, the myth about his sexual prowess and receiving millions to stay in the company of rich heiresses like, Doris Duke, B
