Blacklisting Myself
Memoir of a Hollywood Apostate in the Age of Terror

Blacklisting Myself details Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Roger L. Simon’s odyssey from financier of the Black Panther Breakfast Program to darling of the political right. In this tale of Hollywood radical chic run amuck, Simon relates his adventures with Richard Pryor, Warren Beatty, Woody Allen and real-life Hollywood KGB officers. Among the topics covered along the way: the new blacklist for conservatives in tinseltown and how new media will destroy Hollywood as we know it.
