Author Information

Sir ROGER MOORE KBE had an extraordinary career that spanned seven decades, from early television to the golden age of Hollywood and on to international superstardom. Dashing, handsome and every inch the archetypal English gentleman, he was unforgettable as the title character in The Saint and as Lord Brett Sinclair in The Persuaders!. But it was as James Bond where he made his mark, playing the most debonair of the 007s in seven blockbusting films.
