New York, NY – In conjunction with the 25^th anniversary of Michael Gerber’s global bestseller The E-Myth Revisited, the National Academy of Bestselling Authors has selected him as the first Lifetime Achievement Award winner at an awards ceremony that will also honor some of 2010’s bestselling authors.

The event takes place December 3 at the Hard Rock Café in Times Square, New York City.

The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ was founded by two attorneys, JW Dicks, Esq. and Nick Nanton, Esq. who are also bestselling authors and represent authors and experts nationwide. Both attorneys are members of multiple organizations, associations and academies that recognize and honor the best in the business, and they thought a similar organization should be created for bestselling authors who don’t always get recognition for their accomplishment.

Like traditional award shows, their goal was to create more categories—besides the familiar “New York Times Bestseller”—for authors to be accepted and recognized for their accomplishments. The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ now honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.

Dubbed the world’s “#1 small business guru” by Inc. Magazine, Michael Gerber is the founder of E-Myth Worldwide, the coaching, training and education firm he founded in 1977 to transform the development of small businesses. Today, Mr. Gerber’s companies have become leading small business development firms in the world, having helped to grow more than 70,000 businesses in over 145 countries.

The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don’t Work and What to Do About It along with Mr. Gerber’s other E-Myth books, have sold millions of copies and have been on the Small Business Bestseller list for more than ten consecutive years. His books have been translated into 29 languages and used in 118 universities throughout the world.

Mr. Gerber has penned 12 other books that have established his revolutionary perspective as the standard for small business and entrepreneurial development. He has spoken to enthralled audiences throughout the world including London, Leeds, Vancouver, Toronto, Sydney, Melbourne, The Gold Coast, and in every state in the U.S. — more than 500 events overall.
