American presidents, Hollywood superstars, military heroes,
politicians, sports icons, business leaders, elected
officials...what do they have in common? They belong to the
Benevolent Protective Order of Elks
In "Stars of Tomorrow," Hollywood producer J. Herbert Klein
writes about the past, present, and future of this esteemed
fraternal organization. He also shares his vision for attracting
younger members with an Elks-sponsored high school talent
competition called STARS OF TOMORROW -- which Klein has dubbed THE
WORLD'S BIGGEST REALITY SHOW
Klein's experience producing programs for the Elks goes back to
1968, when he helmed the First American Theatre Awards, a
competition for theater majors that concluded in an awards show
judged by leading names in show business. "Variety" called the
program "quite remarkable," and winner Eric Server went on to enjoy
a successful career in television -- appearing on top programs,
including " Star Trek, Mission Impossible, " and "Incredible
Hulk."
"Stars of Tomorrow" is earning rave reviews from members of the
Elks
""Stars of Tomorrow" is a colorful, enlightening and historical
walk through the history of the Elks, a fraternal organization of
which I'm proud to say I am a member. I have often heard stories of
the beginnings of Elkdom, but this book put you in the shoes of
Charles Vivian as he stepped off an English trading vessel in the
Port of New York and began his journey to the formation of the
Jolly Corks and shortly after the formation of the Benevolent and
Protective Order of Elks. This book brought so much of the Elks
history to life for me. I found it a very interesting read for an
Elk wanting to learn more about our great fraternal order." Ted
Olsen, Santa Clarita Elks 2370
