6/25-Gloria Berlin

Gloria Berlin-Michael Jackson: In Search of Neverland
Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous host, Robin Leach, called it the 'sale of the century'. It was the real estate transaction that made Michael Jackson the owner of what would come to be called the Neverland Ranch. Gloria Rhoads Berlin is the realtor who made that sale.


Gloria met Michael when he was in his teens and lived in the same neighborhood. Their friendship didn't develop until several years later. Gloria tells the details of how they searched for his perfect home and the friendship that developed between them during that journey.

She also has some intriguing insights into the man behind the image and his innermost thoughts. What did Michael really think about his childhood? What were Michael's spiritual beliefs? What was the one thing Michael wanted that he never had?

Her book includes some personal photos of her time with Michael and their adventures together.
