Thanks for the post. I remember his work mostly from X Minus One that played on WVXU in Cincinnati. He had a great sense of drama and making things work. Wish you had more questions about that and his experiences in the German camps as US Jewish prisoner of war. He is a fine writer and quick.
"ROOTS"—In 1978 Alex Haley agreed to pay Harold Courlander {the author of 1967's "The African"} $650,000 in an out-of-court settlement for plagiarism. Harold Hal Courlander deserves to have his name above that of Haley's as the author of "Roots."
