EARL NIGHTINGALE

In an age when the majority of men and women were drifting towards a life of conformity and uneventfulness . . .

there came to the forefront of the national scene

a man who decided to chart a course both interesting and challenging. Earl Nightingale's life was unique in the annals of American business. Caught in the Great Depression as a boy of twelve, he could not justify poverty when he was told there was plenty for everyone in this abundant land. He therefore decided to discover why people succeed or fail in life and was determined that he, would become financially successful at an early age.

Later, stationed aboard the battleship, USS Arizona, he was one of a handful of survivors when that ship was destroyed and sunk at Pearl Harbor. Later,

when separated from the Marine Corps in 1946 and starting with practically nothing, in ten years he founded and headed four corporations. He wrote,

sold and produced fifteen radio and television programs per week. He appeared on all major networks and for four years was the star of the

dramatic series, Sky King which was carried on more than 500 stations of the Mutual Radio Network. He also began an insurance agency and in twelve

months led it from last to sixth place in the nation with one of the world's largest companies.

In 1956, the Nation's Press carried the astounding story of the phenomenally  

successfull young man who, at 35, had become financially  independent. It was then that he produced his now famous record, The Strangest Secret, which tells others of the proven plan for success that he devolted seventeen years to find. Since it's release, this inspiring recording broke all precedent in the recording industry by selling in the multi-millions to major industries, retailer, salesmen, clubs and associations, parents, students and people in virtually all walks of life and in every corner of the world.

Realizing the need for this kind of information he  co-founded, The Nightingale-Conant Corporation which became the world leader in the personal growth industry.

Writing and broadcasting over 7,000 radio shows over a 40- year period, he was once called, "The most highly recognized voice in the world."
