Media Interest Grows around Fortune and Fame

As Fortune and Fame hits the bookshelves, interest in the project is certainly beginning to grow.

At the tail end of 2022, we were delighted to report that Wales National Newspaper, the Western Mail had identified Fortune and Fame as one of its favourite books of 2022.

We have also begun to reach out globally, as news reached us that Fortune and Fame was now available from Barnes & Noble in New York City and across the USA.

As 2023 arrived, Jonathan spoke to listeners of BBC Radio Wales about his remarkable life story and how the book had come into being.

He described the stages in creating the book, but also shared some of the highlights of his career.

He advised presenter Behnaz Akhgar that he had started out as a humble telegram boy, but later reached the very pinnacle of the financial, sporting and entertainment worlds as an advisor, agent and producer.

Behnaz was captivated by Jonathan’s story and eagerly probed him for details of his astonishing life. She also brought things up to date by asking about Jon’s health following the effects of cancer which he describes so emotionally in the book.

You can listen to Jon's conversation with Behnaz again via Radio Wales’ website. Jon’s appearance was on 5th January 2023.
