Trish Kinney's story is so powerful and beautifully written that it's almost impossible to put down. Scarred by childhood sexual abuse, Trish's adult life became a combination of high achievement (she is an award-winning documentary filmmaker, actress, dancer, choreographer, entrepreneur...) and self-destructive addiction. Ironically, a chilling and symbolic cancer diagnosis provides the opportunity for miraculous healing and self-empowerment. Trish's journey to health is much more than an amazing story---this is a book that can heal, and one that you will recommend again and again. Don't miss this opportunity to meet a courageous spirit who will inspire and amaze you."
"Trish is a psychological alchemist who has transformed her emotional and physical wounds, provoked by 'indecent exposure' to a brave sacrifice of complete 'exposure', healing herself as she weaves her tale."

Watch Trish on the Laura Flanders Show
Trish will appear on the Laura Flanders Show (grittv.org) on Wednesday, December 9th in New York.

In addition, Laura will interview Trish about her book, Silver Platter Girl.

Her books include, Blue Grit: True Democrats Take Back Politics from the Politicians (Penguin Press, 2007) and the New York Times best-seller BUSHWOMEN: Tales of a Cynical Species (Verso, 2004), an investigation into the women in George W.
