Chasing Moonlight: The True Story of Field of Dreams' Doc Graham | Brett Friedlander, Robert Reising

1 post | 1 read

In Chasing Moonlight, Brett Friedlander and Robert Reising prove that truth is more interesting than fiction. The real-life Moonlight Graham didn't play just a half-inning for John McGraw's New York Giants, as depicted in Field of Dreams. Neither did he retire from baseball after his lone major league appearance. Rather, he became a fan favorite during a noteworthy professional career, all the while juggling baseball with medical residencies.

Chasing Moonlight: The True Story of Field of Dreams' Doc Graham | Brett Friedlander, Robert Reising

so-so

Finished a short bio on Moonlight Graham, the character portrayed by Burt Lancaster in “Field of Dreams” (and based on W.P. Kinsella‘s book “Shoeless Joe”). Clunky but informative. It never really answers why this former Tar Heel ended up in Minnesota. Graham‘s brother was President of UNC and turned down the Vice-Presidency from FDR in 1936.
