Fear the Present. Dread the Future." Told in his unmistakable voice, BARRY SONNENFELD, CALL YOUR MOTHER is a laugh-out-loud memoir about coming of age. Constantly threatened with suicide by his over-protective mother, disillusioned by the father he worshiped, and abused by a demonic relative, Sonnenfeld somehow went on to become one of Hollywood's most successful producers and directors. Written with poignant insight and real-life irony, the book follows Sonnenfeld from childhood as a French horn player through graduate film school at NYU, where he developed his talent for cinematography. His first job after graduating was shooting nine feature length pornos in nine days. From that humble entrée, he went on to form a friendship with the Coen Brothers, launching his career shooting their first three films. Will Praise for BARRY SONNENFELD, CALL YOUR Smith once joked that he wanted to take Sonnenfeld to Philadelphia MOTHER: public schools and say, "If this guy could end up as a successful film director on big budget films, anyone can." This book is a fascinating and " Zesty anecdotes about family, marriage, and fatherhood combine with hilarious roadmap for anyone who thinks they can't succeed in life because of a rough beginning. Hollywood gossip to make for an entertaining romp.” – Kirkus “If I went to prison, and saw that Barry Sonnenfeld was going to be my Barry Sonnenfeld made his directorial debut with The Addams Family in 1991, and has gone on to direct a number of films including Addams cellmate, I would think, ‘Oh, this will be a breeze.’”— Jerry Seinfeld Family Values, Get Shorty, and the first three Men in Black films.

In RUST, Eliese brings the reader inside the belly of the mill and the middle American upbringing that brought her there in the first place. She takes a long and intimate look at her Rust Belt childhood and struggles to reconcile her desire to leave without turning her back on the people she's come to love. The people she sees as the unsung backbone of our nation. Faced with the financial promise of a steelworker’s paycheck, and the very real danger of working in an environment where a steel coil could crush you at any moment, Eliese finds unexpected warmth and camaraderie among the gruff men she labors beside each day. Praise for RUST: Appealing to readers of Hillbilly Elegy and Educated, RUST is a story of the "An affecting, unblinking portrait of working-class life.” – Kirkus humanity Eliese discovers in the most unlikely and hellish of places, and the hope that therefore begins to grow.

She received an MFA in nonfiction from the Northeast Ohio Master "Goldbach displays refreshing candor and hard-earned knowledge about the of Fine Arts Program.

Eliese has received the Ploughshares Emerging "This beautifully told, nuanced memoir will strike a chord with fans of Writers Award and a Walter Rumsey Marvin Grant from the Ohioana Hillbilly Elegy and pique the interest of sociology scholars." – Library Library Association, which is given to a young Ohio writer of promise.
