A Graduate of
Columbia College in Chicago, Benjamin DeHaven keeps his heart in Chicago and
his soul in New Orleans. He holds a MBA from Tulane and a film degree from
Columbia. Once ejected from a community college for arguing Frost cried out for
acceptance in Birches, he has since written screenplays, traded futures in
Madrid, and was Editor in Chief of the Nola Shopper Newspaper, a free art
newspaper and the 2nd largest monthly paper in the New Orleans, MSA. . He also
has a "shout out" in a Jay "Z" Song.
DeHaven, who
currently resides in Las Vegas began his writing career with Stone United, a
Chicago based Film Company, which works primarily in independent film. As an
unknown fiction writer, he feels the best description of himself, is a
sarcastic one and is as follows:
Benjamin W.
DeHaven was born on a pool table after a Waylon Jennings' concert in 1977. His
personal success is outweighed only by his stunning good looks and adherence to
unwritten moral guidelines. He has been described as a thinking man's Tucker
Max as well as an idiot's Hunter S. Thompson. His goal is to die from an
unwavering commitment to be more like Hemingway.
He and
Michael Enzo were friends.
Blurb:
A
ghost, a philanthropist, a con man, a devout Catholic, a gigolo, a savior, an
heir, a common man, and an addict are just some of the words used to describe
Michael Enzo, who some sources credit with ghost-writing more than 108
self-help books on behalf of celebrities, politicians and business leaders.
After failing to make what he considered to be a positive impact on society he
began to destroy those closest to him including Benjamin DeHaven, the author of
this book, and former collaborator. Defrauding an industry for almost 20 years
by exploiting people's insecurities and profiting from them, more than likely
these friends contributed more to the field of self-help, while profiting from
it, than they will ever know.
Believing they could only understand people's problems by suffering along with them, they lived on the razor's edge. If you've ever picked up a tell-all biography of a celebrity or a title from the self-help section at the bookstore, certainly you would question the source.This is an inside look at the mind of Michael Enzo and it is the author's hope that people will start helping themselves again after reading it. Discover what turns someone from preaching salvation towards seeking its destruction. You won't believe this could be true.
