Robert Platshorn Author Speaker Activist
Famous Pitchman Founder of The Silver Tour
Robert Platshorn, author of Black Tuna Diaries and America's longest (30 yrs) imprisoned non-violent marijuana offender. Raised on South St. in downtown Philadelphia, acting ambitions earned him a supporting role in a successful off Broadway play while still in high school. The same skill led to Robert becoming one of
