Born and raised near Asbury Park, New Jersey, Dan Harary is best known for his 40-plus years of work in Hollywood as an Entertainment Industry Publicist, and as Owner (since 1996) of the Asbury PR Agency in Beverly Hills, California.
He has worked with hundreds of famous celebrities from movies, TV, music and pop culture since the age of 15 (1972), including a pre-fame Bruce Springsteen. Additionally, Dan Harary is a published author, and in 2022 he released his Hollywood memoir, Flirting With Fame : A Hollywood Publicist Recalls 50 Years of Celebrity Close Encounters.
His first book was covered in major national media outlets, including, The L.A. Times, Newsweek, The Hollywood Reporter, The Village Voice, L.A. Weekly, The New York Daily News, KFI Radio, and many others.
Dan has personally experienced three UFO sightings. One near Edwards Air Force Base in 1996. Another in 2008, at the ECETI Ranch in Washington State, at the base of Mt. Adams. But most significantly, Dan had a dramatic UFO sighting in his hometown in 1970, where he shared the experience with his father, an Electronics Engineer / Physicist for the U.S. Army. He has been interviewed about that sighting by media outlets around the world — the story also became a feature article in the June 2023 edition of the MUFON JOURNAL.
After his father’s death in 2017, Dan recalled that encounter for the first time in 47 years, discovered the nature of his late father’s top secret work with radar systems, missiles, and military drone technologies, and was inspired to write his second book, After They Came.
Upon its release in Spring 2023, After They Came quickly made an impact within the UFO Researcher and Experiencer communities, and was endorsed by numerous top UFO experts, including: Richard Dolan, Chase Kloetzke, Lynn Kitei, Earl Grey Anderson, George Noory, Jimmy Church, Deb Jordan-Kauble, and Kathleen Marden. This second book was covered by media around the world, including The Daily Mail in the U.K.
Said UFO Expert Nick Pope of After They Came, “Dan Harary’s book is an entertaining and upbeat work of sci-fi that cleverly incorporates key parts of the UFO phenomenon's lore and backstory - a delightful tale of wonder and hope.” Adds iconic UFO Experiencer Travis Walton, "The style of the images in After They Came are presented in such a graphic visual style that it could serve as the basis of an entertaining film adaptation.”
Dan has been a member of the Southern California Chapter of MUFON since 2007. He is also the creator and host, since early 2024, of The UnX Network's podcast: LIVE FROM HOLLYWOOD IT’S PARANORMAL TONIGHT!
