The Whole World Was Watching

Frank Beacham's autobiography tells of coming of age in the turbulent 1960s and his compelling lifetime adventures as an independent media storyteller.
Beacham writes behind-the-scenes accounts of the madness at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, the Apollo 11 moon launch, the civil rights movement in Mississippi, his chilling arrest by military dictator Manuel Noriega of Panama and covering American presidents throughout the world.
Beacham describes his topsy-turvy collaboration with Orson Welles, working with the major television networks and breaking new ground in video production. His work includes books, plays and stories that have been turned into film and television programming - all while remaining independent.
