70th Anniversary Event Honoring L. Ron Hubbard as Member of Famed Explorers Club Now on YouTube

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., March 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Author and explorer L. Ron Hubbard was recently honored at the Explorers Club headquarters in celebration of his 70th anniversary—February 19, 1940—as a member of the famed Club and the release of four new titles in his Stories from the Golden Age series of books and audiobooks. The L. Ron Hubbard Explorers Club 70th Anniversary Event video showing the evening's highlights is now available at www.YouTube.com/GoldenAgeStories

The event featured speakers Capt. Steve Nagiewicz, Former Executive Director of the Explorers Club, and Don Hartsell, Executive Director of the World Air League and a Club member—each speaking about Hubbard as one the Club's most celebrated members. Next was a presentation of Mr. Hubbard's literary accomplishments by a representative from his literary agency, Ms. Gunhild Jacobs, followed by the release of the next four titles in the Stories from the Golden Age line of books: the fiction adventures, Yukon Madness and Golden Hell; the fantasy thriller and perhaps only zombie story ever written by Hubbard, Dead Men Kill; and the western, The Baron of Coyote River by president Galaxy Press, John Goodwin.

Guests were treated to a live performance of "The Last Drop," a humorous science fiction story by Hubbard originally published in 1941. Featured in the performance were Barbara Rosenblat, (Best Audio Voice in Mystery and Suspense for 2008 and 2009); R.F. Daley (narrator of over 150 audiobooks); Emmy award-winner John Mariano (The Sopranos, West Wing, ER); and Josh Robert Thompson (The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson).

Hubbard's membership into the Explorers Club was part of a commitment to scientific expeditions and exploration by Hubbard begun in the 1930s and 1940s—taking him to the West Indies, Puerto Rico, and the Alaskan coastline (where he carried the Explorers Club flag to conduct radio experiments).
