This section presents the acknowledgments of the author of the biography of Charles E. McGee. The contribution of family, friends and associates to Dad's story is living testimony of their high regard for him. I am grateful for the role each played in bringing his biography to life. Many sent stories and provided anecdotes from times they shared with him. Some included photos and news clippings as well. However incorporated, every offering added to my insight, understanding and ability to convey events in their fullest sense.
