Writing career

Newspaper and magazine reporting

In 1970 Stauth worked as a public relations specialist for the University of Illinois Sports Information Department, and as a general assignment reporter for the

nonprofit Cancer Prevention Society.[6] He became Editor of the Journal of the Nutritional Academy in 1979, and Editor of the Journal of Health Science in 1982.[citation needed] He was also a contributing editor on health and healing for Let's Live, and The New Age Journal.[7][8]

His early non-medical work included being Editor of Eugene, the city magazine of

Sport, Avenue, Inside Sports, American Health, The Saturday Evening Post, Golf Digest, and many other publications.[15][16]

Medical books

Stauth's first book, 1981's The New Approach to Cancer, was one of the earliest to describe integrative therapies for

autism is strongly influenced by multiple physical issues, including neurological inflammation, toxicity, nutrient deficits, endocrine imbalance, gastrointestinal disorders, and infection, and that it can be better controlled and sometimes reversed when these issues are resolved.[21] In addition, Stauth modified the theory and nomenclature of the “fight or flight” response, a characterization of the human reaction to stress, originated by Walter Cannon, M.D.[22] Stauth created and described the now widely used phrase and condition referred to as the “fight-flight-freeze” response, presented in several of his books that were written with various coauthors. These books include Brain Longevity, What Happy People Know, and The End of Pain.[23][24][25][26]

Stauth wrote two other medical books with Khalsa, The Pain Cure, which described natural

biomedical and mind-body therapies for chronic pain, and Meditation as Medicine, an examination of mental control over illness.[27][28] Stauth also wrote books about weight management and fitness, including The False Fat Diet, One Body One Life, and 2003's The Starch Blocker Diet, a reprise of his 1982 book The Original Starch Blocker Diet.[29][30][31] He also wrote a book on the emerging science of happiness, What Happy People Know, with Dr. Dan Baker.[32]

Narrative nonfiction

Stauth's first literary nonfiction account of a true story was The Sweeps, written with Mark Christensen, a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of NBC's 1983 prime-time programs, including Cheers and Family Ties.[33][34] It was followed by The Manhunter, a book about the rise and fall of the U.S. Marshal's Chief of International Operations.[35]

Stauth also wrote two narrative nonfiction books about professional basketball. The Franchise described the 1988–89 season of a National Basketball Association general manager,

NBA championship.[36][37] The Golden Boys was an unauthorized depiction of the 1992 Olympic
basketball team, known as the Dream Team.

Stauth's most recent book, "In the Name of God, The True Story of the Fight to Save Children From Faith Healing Homicide,” was published in 2013 by St. Martin's Press, of Macmillan Publishers.[38] It is a finalist for Best Nonfiction Book in the 2015 Oregon Book Awards.[39]

Films

Stauth wrote the story for and was a producer of Because Mommy Works, an NBC-TV film released in 1994.[40] The movie was based on a true story Stauth wrote for McCall's magazine, "Why a Good Mother Lost Custody of Her Child."[41] The article and the film were about a working mother in Oregon who lost custody of her son primarily because she worked outside the home at a time when her ex-husband's current wife did not.[42] The movie, starring Anne Archer and John Heard, helped advance the legal principle that working outside the home should not be recognized as an issue in custody cases.[43][44]

Stauth also wrote the story for the

Lifetime Television film Prison of Secrets, a true story about Lynn Schaffer and other female inmates in Hawaii who were sexually abused by prison authorities.[45] The abuse, including coerced sex and forced prostitution, occurred over many years, and did not end until media accounts triggered a trial in 1992 that resulted in institutional changes in the Hawaiian prison system.[46][47]
