We got this letter from a professor at LA City College yesterday…
I would like to add your book, “Life Behind the Camera” to the required reading list with the A.P. Stylebook for Journalism 217 and Journalism 218, Publication Laboratory and Practical Editing in the Media Arts department at Los Angeles City College. Students could learn so much from your experience.
I am so happy to see this book! You should consider visiting some of the conferences and speaking or doing workshop presentations at some of the national events for student journalists. I think the scholastic audience is big for your book. More than 2,000 student journalists attend the ACP conferences. It was in New Orleans last October. This is where the universities and two year colleges gather to see which have won the equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize for scholastic journalism for the year.
I am sure students will buy the E Book if we tell them to, but I just want them to be able to hold the book up in the classroom and tell them, if you really want to know what it feels like to chase a story and cover news in the big city and beyond, get this book now!
We have been hearing similar stories from journalism profs and students around the country. We think she’s right. Contact your school today. “Life Behind the Camera” is available at Eckhartz Press.
