Marvin J. Wolf, Award Winning Author and Photojournalist

Picture
In print and in person, Marvin J. Wolf is a renowned storyteller and photojournalist. The photo above is one of many Wolf took during his entry into journalism as an Army combat correspondent, the seed of a career that decades later grew into his newest biographical book. They Were Soldiers: The Sacrifices and Contributions of Our Vietnam Veterans, co-authored with the late legendary war correspondent Joseph Galloway, is available now). Galloway, with the late Lt. Gen. Hal Moore, wrote We Were Soldiers Once ... and Young, a New York Times bestseller and the basis of the popular film starring Mel Gibson, and the bestselling sequel, We Are Soldiers Still. Wolf's prior autobiographical books, co-authored with other notable figures, include Abandoned in Hell, co-authored by decorated Vietnam Green Beret Captain William Albracht. "AIH" won accolades from Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and military publications, was named Best History Book in 2016 by the American Society of Journalists and Authors, and won the 2019 Readers Favorite Gold Medal.

Wolf also co-authored Where White Men Fear To Tread with Russell Means, the man The Washington Post then dubbed, “One of the biggest, baddest, meanest, angriest, most famous American Indian activists of the late twentieth century.” Having penned a series of True Crime books, in recent years Wolf has also created two fiction series. The Rabbi Ben Mysteries feature a detective who happens to be a rabbi. Fans of the initial book, For Whom The Shofar Blows, will be happy to know more Rabbi Ben mysteries, A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn, A Tale of Two Rabbis and Rabbi Ben #4, Bride of Finkelstein, are available on Amazon. Fans of Wolf's fiction are applauding the action and characters in his new Chelmin and Spaulding CID Mysteries. Snake Heads, Book #3 in the series, is available now. And Book #4, El Pistolero is now available on Amazon. Wolf's also been a writer for TV & Film, and, lest he have time to twiddle his thumbs, Wolf's also creating photo books -- a passion begun during his years in Vietnam. Samples of Wolf's short fiction, articles, screenplays, photo backstories and memoirs appear in his blog.

They Were Soldiers Book Trailer

Early Praise for THEY WERE SOLDIERS: The Sacrifices and Contributions of Our Vietnam Veterans
"This riveting book is an important contribution to the national weal. I challenge you to read these stories of a Great Generation with dry eyes." -Steven Pressfield, New York Times bestselling author of The War of Art

"We have conveniently and collectively erased the Vietnam War from most of our memories—it didn’t work out the way our myths tell us American wars should—but we cannot erase the experiences of those who fought that war. They are brought to life magnificently in this book, which is a vivid (and heroic) reminder that we forget at our own peril."
-Ken Burns, award-winning filmmaker
