An Introduction:

Harold Carlton, author of Sacrifice, has led an adventurous, well-travelled life which took him in a quite different direction to the one he'd planned.
While studying Dress Design at London's Saint Martin's School of Art, he took an Easter break in Paris midway through a 3-year course. He saw Nina Ricci's haute couture collection and asked the Personnel Director if they needed an artist: he was taken on immediately and never went home. He was eighteen.


After three years in Paris, working as design-assistant at Ricci and then as right-hand man for Courrèges, he drew for Elle Magazine and covered the collections for The Associated Press and the Sunday Times.
He moved on to New York, to freelance as a magazine illustrator while doing various day-jobs like selling commemorative Kennedy bronze heads, writing weather reports for W-ABC, a 24-hour rock radio station where he met Cassius Clay, Sonny & Cher and others.
He also put in a stint for the now-defunct Mohawk Airlines selling flights to upstate NY cities like Poughkeepsie. The longest flight was twenty minutes, and when a customer asked if meals were served, Carlton replied "Mohawk operates a 'Fly Now, Eat Later' policy!"
To a nasty female customer, he said "Why not forget Mohawk and use your broomstick?" He was fired.
He made sure to criss-cross USA by Greyhound Bus, writing of his experiences in Houston for the London Sunday Times Magazine. He also wrote the first article on the black model, Donyale Luna.
Mad for Black Soul Music, he saw every great legend perform at the Harlem Apollo (Aretha, Otis, James Brown, Supremes, Temptations, Dionne Warwick, Marvin Gaye, Chuck Berry, etc).


Returning to London as Mens Fashion Editor of the Sunday Times, Carlton was commissioned by Ernest Hecht of Souvenir Press to write three novels about Fashion - the only profession he knew about... (Rag Dolls, Pretty Boys, Exhibition) He used the pen-name Simon Cooper. The novels were successful and he gav up drawing for journalism and writing.
By the 90s, he had married, divorced, worked for two years in Los Angeles as Editor of Men's Stylist, a men's fashion magazine, while also writing for the Los Angeles Times.
He visited India, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Bali, Morocco and much of Europe, ending up living in Spain.
Going full-time novelist, he wrote LABELS, under his own name, which sold over a million copies and has been published three times in UK.
Today, he still tends to specialise in Fashion and Sex, sometimes simultaneously.
