Product Description
David Kristof and Todd W. Nickerson were walking down the street one day in midtown Manhattan when they saw a soapbox preacher screaming doomsday predictions into a bullhorn on an opposite corner. His constant use of the words "fireball" and "brimstone" were frequently mentioned with "millennium". Around him a crowd had gathered, fascinated by his prophesies about how the world would end in the year 2000. Hmmm, they thought, people seem interested in this coming millennium stuff.

So in early 1997, these two formed the Millennium Committee of New York, L.L.C., to commemorate the arrival of the third millennium. They also decided to try collecting celebrity predictions about the millennium, sending out letters that asked for brief predictions to world leaders, movie stars, and business tycoons. Soon, the pair was stunned by the quantity and quality of responses they received.

In Predictions for the Next Millennium, more than 250 world celebrities offer their insights -- many in their own handwriting -- for what the next one thousand years wilt bring. With notable contributors from Oliver Stone to Archbishop Desmond Tutu, from Nadia Comaneci to George Harrison, from Hugh Hefner to Norman Schwarzkopf, Predictions combines fascinating messages with brief celebrity biographies and photos. Organized by professional categories from literature to music to world government, Predictions will grab the attention of everyone looking for sage predictions and a dose of humor from those in the know.
