THE AUTHOR
Ron Roberts, married with three grown-up children, has spent his entire working life in the media. Affiliated to Britain’s Daily Express, Sunday Correspondent and Daily Telegraph on a full-time basis, he has also freelanced for the Daily Mail, Guardian, The European and Independent newspapers.
Specializing in popular music-related features, his articles have appeared in the Express, Correspondent, Telegraph, London Evening Standard, Record Mirror, Woman’s Own, Woman’s Realm, CD liners and a number of syndicated titles in all five continents.
His favourite interviewees have, pleasingly, reflected the artists most represented in his extensive music collection, and include Connie Francis, Vikki Carr, Alma Cogan and Dolores Gray. Nights of the Turntable is his first novel, and he has already drawn outlines of plots for an intended sequel, with the working title 'Daze of the Weak'.
