“Jennifer’s memoir was the last major project she completed before she passed away,” says Alulis. “She and I worked together for two years to make sure she was happy with every word of it, and with someone as intentional and thoughtful as Jennifer, that was no small task! I’m heartbroken that she won’t get to see it published, but I’m thrilled to share her life and legacy with the world.”
The memoir will be a candid and personal account of Finch’s life as a musician, photographer, and activist, exploring her work with L7 and confronting addiction, abuse, and loss.
