Synopsis

Nothing came easy for Ed Levine. He was the child of Russian immigrants who settled in London's East End, enduring World War II bombing, years of recovery, and poverty. Ed faced the challenges of dyslexia and ever-present anti-Semitism even after his family immigrated to Canada and later to the United States. Forced to fight for every achievement, Ed met his greatest battle at the peak of his personal and professional success. Diagnosed with stage four lung cancer at the age of 62 and advised that he had only a few weeks to live, he applied the skills he had learned over the years to fight for survival. Ed has fought for sixteen years...and still counting. The Miracle Known as Ed Levine, based on a true story, is an inspiring tale of bravery, perseverance, and miracles.

À propos de l'auteur

I always loved to write but had never felt compelled to do so until 1995 at the age of 52. While working at a trade show in Hanover, Germany, I conversed with the security guard of the neighboring exhibit. We talked about our families, life in his country after World War II, and the Germany of today. This Memphis girl never expected to have such a fascinating and unique experience, and I wanted to remember every detail. I secured paper and began my first of many journals. If it happens, I write it. If I contemplate it, I write it. If I find a willing reader, I am honored to share my passion. Through seminars, classes, and critique groups I continue to learn and make new and interesting friends. My first manuscript began as a one-page assignment for my creative writing class. Legacy is still a work in progress, a tale of family rivalry, domestic abuse, mystery, and love. My protagonist and her story have grown in depth and complexity along with the author who created them. I believe that it's never too late to follow your dream. I'm doing it.
