His most recent national best seller is Old Age Is Not For Sissies.

In addition, Art starred in and co-produced many spectaculars and specials, as well as acting in half a dozen dramatic shows and several motion pictures.

The corporation has also been involved in Canadian drilling and Alaskan exploration.
