Pawn Star Writes A Book

Rick Harrison, of the TV show, Pawns Stars has written a book. From the Las Vegas Sun: Hometown reality TV star Rick Harrison of The History Channel’s Pawn Stars candidly revealed his childhood struggles and the overwhelming fame that’s come from starring in the top-rated cable series. He tells all in his new book License to Pawn: Deals, Steals and Life at the Gold & Silver, which is being released today by Hyperion.
Yesterday morning, Rick appeared in New York with George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s Good Morning America showing video segments when the anchor joined the pawnshop team and even negotiated prices on items that the crowded lines carried with them. “What started once with 200 customers on a great day has grown to 2,000 sometimes. It’s the hottest show on television today,” George declared.
All four Pawn Stars -- Richardson “The Old Man” Harrison, Rick “The Spotter” Harrison, Corey “Big Hoss” Harrison” and Austin “Chumlee” Russell -- have become top TV favorites. “I feel like Justin Bieber when I open the story every day,” Chumlee quipped on the ABC broadcast.
