He's a first-time author who proves that it's never too late, even at age 96.
Harry Bernstein's first book, "The Invisible Wall," chronicles the memories of a rough and sad childhood spent battling an alcoholic father and vicious anti-Semitism in Northern England. He began writing the volume at age 93 as a way to deal with the death of his wife of almost seven decades.
Bernstein says it's the "best therapy" he could have had. The book has been picked up by Random House in London where one editor there calls Bernstein "a most fantastic writer."
"The Invisible Wall" has already been published in England and Sweden with Germany, Italy, Finland and Norway to follow.
Bernstein is now working on "The Dream," which centers on his family's move to the U.S.
He uses a typewriter, saying computers are only good for checking e-mail.
Good life hor? 96 year old still can write.
