Elizabeth
Guider is a longtime entertainment journalist who has worked in Rome, Paris
and London as well as in New York and Los Angeles. Born in the South, she holds
a doctorate in Renaissance Studies from New York University. During the late
1970’s she was based in Rome where she taught English and American literature
and where much of the action of her first novel, The Passionate Palazzo, takes
place. While in Europe she worked as an entertainment reporter for the showbiz
newspaper Variety, focusing on the film business, television and theater. She
also traveled widely, reporting on the politics affecting media from Eastern
Europe to Hong Kong as well as covering various festivals and trade shows in
Cannes, Monte Carlo, Venice and Berlin. Back in the States since the early
1990’s, she specialized on the burgeoning TV industry and eventually held top
editor positions at Variety and latterly at The Hollywood Reporter. Most
recently she has freelanced for World Screen News as senior contributing
editor. She mostly divides her time between Los Angeles and Vicksburg, MS where
she grew up and which is the setting for Milk and Honey on the Other Side.
Milk and Honey on the Other Side: In a rambunctious
river town unsettled by the Great War and up-ended by change unlikely lovers are
brought together—but dogged by inescapable bigotry. Despite the dangers, the
heroine defies her southern upbringing; the hero fends off his inner demons.
For family and friends, race becomes a litmus test, each revealed by his
responses to the chasm which separates black from white.
