Dr. Hayes’ book was picked up by Ingraham Publishing, an international distributor of books and ePub digital books located in Nashville, Tennessee.

Texas Bookman, a distributor of books to schools, universities and libraries will also consider Dr. Hayes’ book for mass distribution as well as Brilliance Audio for audio book distribution. Overall, it was a productive trip for the two brothers.
The event was held at the Jacob Javits Center in the heart of Manhattan on the Hudson River.
Dr. Hayes and his twin brother Ronnie scheduled their trip with time to visit some of NYC’s famous sites.
They were guests at Club Quarters World Trade Center which is two blocks from Wall Street and the New York Stock Exchange.
Their hotel was across the street from the Freedom Tower and they could watch the construction at that site each day as they exited to take in the sights and sounds of a bustling city. Some of the sites they visited were Rockefeller Center, The Boat House Central Park, The American Museum of Natural History, The Empire State Building, Macy’s Department Store, Saks Fifth Avenue, Tiffany’s, Times Square, Grand Central Station, and Battery Park.  While they were there they also attended a Broadway Musical entitled ‘Jersey Boys’, a story about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.
