Upon moving to Las Vegas more than twenty years ago, Lynn Rosenberg was immediately struck by the eclectic range of residents she met.

Produktbeschreibung
Upon moving to Las Vegas more than twenty years ago, Lynn Rosenberg was immediately struck by the eclectic range of residents she met. Throughout the years, Rosenberg was intrigued by stories of how other people, including many of her colleagues, ended up moving to Las Vegas. She became even more interested in what attracted each person to ultimately put down roots in a rather unique and unexpected setting. "While listening to so many personal anecdotes, I noticed a common sentiment emerge. Every single person I questioned or interviewed said 'I never thought I would live here.' So, I set out to write a book to share their stories with the world," Rosenberg says. In 50 States 50 Stories, Rosenberg has compiled true stories collected over a five year period from people from all 50 U.S. states (and beyond) and from all walks of life who chose to make Las Vegas their home. Rosenberg aims to broaden the way people so often view "Sin City." "For many people, Las Vegas is a place to visit as an adult playground but not a place to call home," she says. "The stories from my book will hopefully change that perception."
Autorenporträt
Lynn Rosenberg and her husband, Ron, have lived in Las Vegas, NV for over 20 years. Originally from New York, Lynn taught elementary school then followed her career path to become an assistant principal, honing her organizational and managerial skills through education. She wrote and published a collection of true stories entitled 50 States 50 Stories...I Never Thought I' d Live Here, which was published in 2020. Writing became a new avocation, one that encouraged her to facilitate a class that can be found on YouTube entitled, "So You Wanna be a Writer?" helping both aspiring and experienced writers to develop their craft.Thelma & Lou: A Circular Love Story is Lynn's first novel, loosely based on her parents' marriage and divorce, and is an attempt to rewrite history. The Rosenbergs have enjoyed traveling throughout Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as hiking through most of America's national parks. Visiting the couple's three children and six grandkids in both Nashville and Los Angeles rounds out their busy lives.lynnsrosenberg.com
