Sex in Excess Surviving the Party
In 1989 Elaine Pasqua's mother and stepfather were diagnosed with AIDS. Witnessing the ravages of this disease as she cared for them, Elaine vowed to speak out so others would not have to experience the pain and loss that twice touched her family. Her journey began after her mother’s death in 1995. She educated health and social service professionals about the psychosocial dynamics of HIV/AIDS, and discovered her passion as she worked with high school and college students. Hearing countless stories of students whose lives were changed by one inconsequential decision she broadened her research and expertise to develop one of the most powerful models for educating diverse groups about high-risk drinking, sexual responsibility, and sexual assault. Elaine's extensive work with collegiate athletes has led her to provide player development training for the NFL, NBA, NY Giants, NY Jets, Baltimore Ravens and the Philadelphia Phillies. A four time nominee for Best Speaker of the Year for Campus Activities Magazine Reader’s Choice Awards, she is a contributing writer for their “Real Life on Campus” column and contributing author to “Welcome to the Time of Your Life.” Elaine was featured in USA Today, NY1 News, Time Warner TV, and Knight Ridder News Service. She co-wrote, directed, and produced “Be Aware of the Risks of Date Rape Drugs” which has been viewed over 600,000 times on YouTube

WEBBWEAVER BOOKS: JULIE MANNIX VON ZERNECK & KATHY HATFIELD
Actress Mannix and her daughter, Kathy Hatfield, recount the saga behind a separation of more than 40 years that began when Julie was forced to give up her newborn baby for adoption. Mannix was 19 when she gave birth, but in the more conservative moral climate of the 1960s, since she was unmarried, she was forced to give up her baby. The married father deserted her; her parents turned against her; and, with the connivance of a doctor, committed her to a mental institution on a flimsy pretext. Strength of character pulled her through, and after being released, Mannix took the first steps in her movie career. All the time she pined for the child she had given up. Julie later reconciled with her parents and married her lover, producer Frank von Zerneck, who had since divorced his wife. Kathy was brought up by loving foster parents and only found out in her teens that she was adopted. Kathy later married, and after her stepfather died, she set out to find her biological parents. The debut autobiographers alternate in telling the stories of their lives right from early childhood, which reads almost like a fairy tale but which is resoundingly true. Mannix's life in the Philadelphia institution, and her insights into the patients' lives there, bring out the bleakness of institutional life, particularly shock therapy. She led a life apart from the rest of the world; on the day the world was transfixed by JFK's assassination, she was being transferred between hospitals. A particular strength of the narrative is the two distinct styles of writing; each author states her own point of view simply, without embellishment. The reunion is similarly understated, which makes the meeting even more poignant. Shining through both narratives is goodness and the power of the human spirit. A dually narrated, uplifting tale on overcoming profound adversity.

Hybrid Jazz From Trish Hennessey - with Grace Kelly!
Saxophonist/Composer/Producer/Arranger/Educator Grace Kelly has lived more in her 20 years than most who have lived twice as long.
Born Grace Chung, she and her sister, Christina, were adopted by their stepfather, Bob Kelly. Mom and Dad's house was full of music, especially during Sunday brunch - when the sounds of Stan Getz would permeate their Massachusetts home. At six, Grace was persuaded to play piano - followed by singing lessons, dancing, writing and theater. Then, clarinet and saxophone when she was eight.
The gifted vocalist, Ann Hampton Calloway, saw something special in this child prodigy, as did Grace's middle school teacher - who encouraged this tiny multi-instrumentalist to record her first album. That she did, and "Dreaming" launched an incredible career when Grace was just 12.
Six projects later - among them, the highly praised "Man with the Hat" - with sax legend, Phil Woods - Grace is going strong! "Live at Scullers" is the latest (and courageous) body of work from an artist who is truly spreading her wings and flying. With both serious chops on display and songs that feature her sweet and searching voice, this soon-to-be Birthday Girl is finding her groove. And INSISTING on the groove being hers - and not the path that some would prescribe that she should take.
What a rare find - and we'll delve into the life and times of amazing Grace Kelly when she joins us on Tuesday, April 11th - at the top of the one p.m. hour. Get to know her via her website: www.gracekellymusic.com

READ A SAMPLE CHAPTER
If you found out you were dying, would you suddenly confess all your past sins?
When former chart-topper Tiffany Knightly learns that she’s dying from cancer, she leaves behind her plush California lifestyle to return to Hempstead, New York, with Karlie, her reluctant teenaged daughter. Her fans think she has simply gone home to die, but Tiffany has another mission. She desperately wishes she could leave her past in the past, but in order to secure her daughter’s future, she must tear open past wounds.
Life wasn’t always easy for Tiffany. With a stepfather who abused her and a mother who didn’t believe her, she acted out by becoming promiscuous. Fifteen years later, she’s back to reveal to her ex-husband that he might not be Karlie’s biological father. In fact, there are four men who could have fathered Karlie—four that she’s willing to acknowledge, anyway.
As Tiffany reveals her truth and searches for Karlie’s father, she reconnects with old friends and old lovers. Some reunions are happy, but some innocent lives are torn apart, leaving Tiffany to wonder if she’s doing the right thing. Through it all, she will have to learn to rely on the healing power of God’s unfathomable love.
