Michele Kwasniewski translated her career behind the scenes in entertainment into an award-winning young adult trilogy that shines a spotlight on the darker side of fame. Starting out as a set production assistant on movies such as INDEPENDENCE DAY and EVITA, Michele moved to the small screen and worked her way up the ladder to production manager, on television shows such as BIG BROTHER. A life-long southern California resident, Michele always dreamed of writing books despite almost failing seventh grade English grammar.
THE RISE AND FALL OF DANI TRUEHART trilogy consists of books RISING STAR BURNING BRIGHT and FALLING STAR
About RISING STAR, Publisher’s Weekly said “…Kwasniewski deftly conveys nuanced family dynamics and interpersonal relationships from a teen perspective.”
Kirkus called BURNING BRIGHT, …”A realistic and absorbing look at a teen celebrity’s struggle with the pressures of success.”
Kirkus called the final installment of the trilogy, “eminently readable.”
