About the Book

"Everything is a blur." Chez Pazienza has just awakened from his first deep sleep in months to find himself in a strange hotel room. As he tries to piece together the details of how he got there -- which come back to him only as confusing fragments -- he steps over to the window, pulls open the curtain and is shocked to his senses. He realizes that he has a front row seat to the smoking wreckage of Lower Manhattan. It's September 13th, 2001. What led him to be at the epicenter of the darkest event in American history turns out to be a personal catastrophe that cost him everything that mattered most to him. Just a few months previously, Chez had been a successful television producer living in Los Angeles with his beautiful new wife. But he harbored a secret that was destroying him from the inside out: a monstrous heroin habit. As his life spiraled out of control, with his marriage crumbling, he made the decision to escape L.A. and get clean. Now, fresh out of rehab, with nothing to lose and walking an emotional tightrope, Chez Pazienza has made another decision -- possibly the craziest one of his life. He's come to New York City in the wake of a terrorist attack that shattered the nation. He's going to go to work for NBC News. He's going to find his humanity again under inhuman conditions -- and rebuild his life in the shadow of death. Told in three intersecting storylines that barrel along with dizzying ferocity, "Dead Star Twilight" is a relentlessly exhilarating memoir that Arianna Huffington calls "fierce, funny, disturbing, but ultimately uplifting... the book 'A Million Little Pieces' dreamed of being."
About the Author: Chez Pazienza is an award-winning television news producer, a regular contributor to the Huffington Post and the creative voice behind the popular website "Deus Ex Malcontent." During his 19 years in TV news, he's produced and managed daily content for WSVN and WTVJ in Miami, KCBS, KNBC and KCAL in Los Angeles, and MSNBC and CNN in New York. He has two L.A.-area Emmys as well as a Golden Mic award. He's been featured in and interviewed by The New York Times, The New York Observer, New York Magazine Online, U.S. News and World Report, The Village Voice, The American Journalism Review, NPR, the IFC Media Project, and Radar and Wired Online. In addition, he's been a regular contributor to Sirius XM's POTUS and Indie Talk channels and is the co-host of "The Bob & Chez Show" podcast along with fellow blogger and Huffington Post contributor Bob Cesca.
