Biographie de l'auteur :

After graduating in classical music, Gary Glading was hired by the Paris Lido to open their new show in Las Vegas, where he worked alongside some of America's greatest performers and took part in TV shows with the likes of Ginger Rogers, Shirley MacLaine and Tom Jones. In his 24 years at sea, Gary has been an entertainer, production show writer/producer, cruise director and director of entertainment for a variety of cruise companies. His work has enabled him to interview and get to know many well-known personalities from the worlds of show business and sport. He is also a song writer/composer, playwright and has written for travel and animal welfare publications. Fluent in eight languages, Gary currently works for P&O Cruises as a cruise director and lives in Italy where he runs a sanctuary for abandoned and abused animals. Stars, Staterooms & Stowaways is his first book.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

In this heart-warming book, cruise director Gary Glading recalls some of the most memorable and hilarious incidents from his career on luxury cruise ships, a career that has lasted 24 years and taken him from the Arctic to the Antarctic and seen him circumnavigate the globe several times. Over the years, he has entertained passengers, interviewed celebrities and tended stray and sick animals at ports around the world. His extraordinary adventures have included surviving a hurricane in the Atlantic, caring for stowaway animals, quelling a passenger mutiny and being marooned on a tropical island. Stars, Staterooms & Stowaways offers a fascinating insight into the world of cruising from an `insider's' point of view - the ships, crew, passengers, entertainers, celebrities and destinations - before and after 9/11, when cruising changed forever.
