Ken Brooks

Brooks was born and raised on the Jersey Shore in Deal and currently lives in Louisville, Kentucky. He is a graduate of the University of Florida (1973), and Florida State

University (1988). His most recent book, "Ingemar Johansson," is a biography of the

colorful Swedish playboy who won the world heavyweight boxing championship in

1959 with a shocking third round kayo of Floyd Patterson. It's a great read!
