Spotlights and Shadows: The Cost of Becoming

Peer behind the shining lights of show business with authors Lydi Conklin and Natalie Guerrero as they illuminate stories of artists struggling with identity, relationships, and the price of fame. In Songs of No Provenance, Conklin crafts a compelling character study of a musician fleeing the New York stage to seek refuge in a writing camp and question her artistry. In My Train Leaves at Three, Guerrero chronicles a coming of age story about a singer and actress balancing grief and ambition while learning how to hold onto her old life in an industry that seeks to control her completely.
