Jerry Schilling: Elvis’ Most Loyal Friend Gives an In-Depth View of the King

Jerry Schilling met Elvis when he was just a boy and Elvis was a teenager. He met him on one of the last weekends before Elvis became “ELVIS”. Jerry knew Elvis for twenty-three years, and in those years he grew up with him, lived with him, worked for him, learned from him, laughed with him, and shared one amazing experience after another. Jerry Schilling is more than being a close friend to Elvis Presley. Jerry is a movie and television producer, a film editor, the manager of The Beach Boys and so much more. Priscilla Presley said “Jerry Schilling is authentic, honest, a purity of a man who truly loved his friend Elvis.” Lisa Marie Presley says “Jerry tells the story of her father with humility, honesty and dignity.” Even Bono of U2 was quoted to say “Jerry Schilling brought grace to Graceland.” Jerry Schilling’s life has spanned from the early days of Guthrie Park playing football with Elvis in North Memphis to standing in the White House with the most powerful man in the United States and I’m not talking about President Nixon, I am talking about the greatest entertainer in the world, Elvis Presley. Without further a due, let’s welcome the closest and most loyal friend to Elvis, the man himself, Jerry Schilling.
