SUMMARY:Luncheon and Book Signing with authors of The Bridesmaid’s Daughter
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a luncheon and book signing with Nyna Giles and Eve Claxton\, authors of The Bridesmaid's Daughter. The Bridesmaid's Daughter is a poignant and unflinching portrait of Carolyn Scott Reybold\, whose glamorous life was sidelined by mental illness\, and of the daughter who reclaimed her memory. Carolyn had been a model in 1947\, a friend of Grace Kelly\, and even a bridesmaid at her wedding. As Nyna grew up\, Carolyn's mental health continued to deteriorate. Carolyn was struggling with undiagnosed mental illness. Not until after her mother's death did Nyna learn that her mother had been suffering from postpartum psychosis. Had Carolyn's mental illness been acknowledged and treated\, the later years of her life would have been dramatically improved. Today\, this type of illness is considered temporary and treatable. Nyna Giles\, with co-author Eve Claxton\, embarks on an investigation to unearth the lost pieces of her mother's remarkable life story. In telling her own and her mother's story\, Nyna wants to raise awareness for mental health advocacy so that no one else has to suffer as Carolyn did.
