I've written three books that examine the lives and crimes of early American gangsters: ""Guns and Roses- The Untold Story of Dean O'Banion, Chicago's Big Shot Before Al Capone"", ""The Man Who Got Away- the Bugs Moran Story"". and most recently ""The Starker"", which is a bio of New York gang boss Big Jack Zelig, who lived hard, died young, and could have saved Lieutenant Charles Becker from the electric chair. I'm currently at work on two new projects: the first biography of infamous nativist gangster 'Butcher Bill' Poole (who inspired the Daniel Day-Lewis character in Scorsese's 'Gangs of New York' and a detailed study of veteran labor slugger / gangster boss 'Dopey' Benny Fein. I've been consulted as an expert on America's criminal history by the History Channel, LucasFilm, and others. Please visit my official site at www.rosekeefe.com
