Barnes & Noble, Inc. (NYSE: BKS), the world's largest retail
bookseller, today announced that it will host two New York area
booksignings featuring President Bill Clinton and World's Bestselling
Author James Patterson to celebrate the release of their new novel, The
President is Missing. The first signing will take place at Barnes &
Noble Fifth Avenue in New York City (555 5th Ave) on June 5 at
12 NOON, and a limited number of wristbands for event access will be
distributed beginning at 9:00 AM on the day of the event. As part of
their national book tour, President Clinton and Mr. Patterson will also

The President is Missing is a unique collaboration between a President and a bestselling author that takes a fictitious look at what happens when a sitting U.S. President goes missing. This powerful, one-of-a-kind thriller, is filled with the kind of insider details that only a President could know.
The President is Missing goes on sale at Barnes & Noble stores nationwide and online on BN.com starting on June 4, and customers can pre-order a copy now.
Bill Clinton was elected President of the United States in 1992. After two successful terms as president, he left the White House and established the Clinton Foundation, which improves lives across the United States and around the world by working together with partners to create economic opportunity, improve public health, and inspire civic engagement and service. He is the author of several nonfiction works, including MY LIFE, which was a #1 international bestseller. The President is Missing is his first novel.
James Patterson received the Literarian Award for Outstanding Service to the American Literary Community from the National Book Foundation. He holds the Guinness World Record for the most #1 New York Times bestsellers, and his books have sold more than 375 million copies worldwide. A tireless champion of the power of books and reading, Patterson created a new children's book imprint, JIMMY Patterson, whose mission is simple: "We want every kid who finishes a JIMMY Book to say, 'PLEASE GIVE ME ANOTHER BOOK.'" He has donated more than one million books to students and soldiers and funds over four hundred Teacher Education Scholarships at twenty-four colleges and universities. He has also donated millions of dollars to independent bookstores and school libraries. Patterson invests proceeds from the sales of JIMMY Patterson Books in pro-reading initiatives.
