He is the author of 23 books, including “The Curse of Rocky Colavito” (selected by The New York Times as one of the five notable sports books of 1989), and “Loose Balls,” which was ranked No. 13 on Sports Illustrated's list of the top 100 sports books of all time.
Pluto has written two books on faith, “Faith and You” and “Everyday Faith.”
He lives with his wife, Roberta, in Akron, Ohio.
His books will be available for purchase that morning, and Pluto will sign the books after each service.
