Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Although born in Hollywood, California, and still an American citizen, Mike Oliver (Foster) has called Mexico home for 66 of his 70 years of age. His Mexican residency was interrupted by four years service in the United States Navy. He served in the Korean War from beginning to end, and was awarded the Korean Medal with four battle stars, the China and Japan Occupation Medals, and the International Service Medal before his Honorable Discharge in 1954. In addition to a course of study at Los Angeles City College, Mr. Oliver was for the most part educated in Mexican schools. Recently, the city of Acapulco officially honored him for his contributions in its rapid international growth and fame.
Mr. Oliver was a publisher, journalist, columnist and photographer for thirty of the forty years that the Acapulco News was published. He wrote under the byline "Mike Oliver's Acapulco" for thirty of those forty years. Oliver also served as an accredited journalist for UPI and in the course of his work in both capacities interviewed hundreds of celebrities ranging from film and sports stars, authors, diplomats and royalties.
Mr. Oliver is now retired and living in Acapulco with his wife, the former Rita Rogliano from Rye, New York.
