Interview with a Jewel Thief

By George N. Feder and Steve Town

The True Story of George Feder: "The Houdini of Jewel Thieves" -- Trained by his Mafia mentor to be a fearless high-rise Superthief, Feder went on to steal a King's Ransom worth of diamonds, rare gemstones, and precious custom-made jewelry from luxury condos and penthouses in New York, Miami, San Francisco, Chicago, and dozens of other US cities during his incredibly prolific 15-year career. Wanted by the FBI, Interpol, and numerous law enforcement agencies throughout the United States, Feder earned a reputation as "The Houdini of Jewel Thieves", a phrase coined by James Patterson, former Special Agent with the US Justice Department, undercover agent with Detroit's Organized Crime Bureau and member of Homeland Security. "Feder loved his profession; in fact he was addicted to it," said former Miami Dade detective Tom "Bulldog" Blake, who relentlessly pursued Feder for ten years. "Feder's closets could be stuffed full of cash and jewelry, yet he would continue to steal. No one knows the dollar amount Feder netted from his burglaries; only George knows that for sure."
