A Life of the Party by Dave Schechter

Facilitated by Sara Ghitis

GUEST AUTHOR – Dave Schechter

HISTORICAL FICTION, 234 pages

Available in Paperback, Kindle, eBook

Amy Schechter, born in England and educated in the United States, devoted two-thirds of her life, more than four decades, to the Communist Party in a quest to improve the lives of working men and women. Party work took her across the United States, from textile mills and coal fields to shipyards and docks. During one of the most famed strikes of its time, her name frequented newspaper front pages as a defendant in a celebrated murder trial. In Russia, she lived in a little-known American colony in Siberia and attended the Party's finishing school in Moscow.

A Life of the Party blends the historical record with narrative fiction fitting Amy's life and times.
