SUMMARY:Ellen Rockmore Joins Author Panel in Hillsdale, NY
DESCRIPTION:Ellen Rockmore will be joining other local authors for a celebration of their work at Books & Cake in Hillsdale New York on December 20th at 3pm. Come get a signed copy of Ellen’s novel, The Given-Up Girl. Books will be available to purchase at the event.\nAbout The Given-Up Girl:\nThe Given-Up Girl is the story of Bonnie Koller, who joins the country’s brightest women at idyllic Halstead College in 1969. With her roommate Hollis as her guide, Bonnie trades her skirts for jeans and her innocence for independence. An unwanted pregnancy forces Bonnie and Hollis to navigate the traps of pre-Roe America – a boyfriend consumed with fear of the draft, doctors of questionable competence, and a hospital bureaucracy rife with corruption. Their search for an abortion puts their ambitions, their friendship and their lives at risk.\nTwenty years later, Bonnie is determined to find the daughter she bore and gave up when her choices ran out. Now a successful small-town lawyer, Bonnie knows her way around a paper trail. But she doesn’t know if the given-up girl wants to be found, or the truth about 1969.\n\nAbout Ellen B. Rockmore:\nBorn and raised in Manhattan, Ellen B. Rockmore was once a New York lawyer. But for the past eighteen years she has taught expository writing at Dartmouth College. She lives in Hanover, New Hampshire, with her husband and three children. Fortunately, only two of them play hockey. Ellen recently began a two-year term as a state legislator in the New Hampshire House of Representatives. Her essay titled “How Texas Teaches History” was published in the New York Times.\n
