About |
Rose Keefe is the author of two vintage True Crime books: Guns and Roses- the Untold Story of Dean O'Banion, Chicago's Big Shot Before Al Capone and The Man Who Got Away: the Bugs Moran Story. Both books made ample use of interviews with surviving relatives of Dean O'Banion and George 'Bugs' Moran as well as such primary resources as arrest records, FBI files, and confidential investigator reports. As part of her research for The Starker, she interviewed the descendants of Jack Zelig, Charles Becker, Dopey Benny Fein, and Abe Shoenfeld.
She has written on the subject of vintage crime and cold case files for national and regional periodicals, and is a frequent guest on radio and television programmes dealing with America's criminal past. Her official website is at www.rosekeefe.com.
