Non-Fiction Memoir
Regina’s Calcaterra memoir, Etched in Sand, is an
inspiring and triumphant coming-of-age story of tenacity and
hope. Regina Calcaterra is a successful lawyer,
New York State official, and activist. Her painful early
life, however, was quite different. Regina and her four
siblings survived an abusive and painful childhood only to
find themselves faced with the challenges of the foster-care
system and intermittent homelessness in the shadows of
Manhattan and the Hamptons. A true-life
rags-to-riches story, Etched in Sand chronicles
Regina’s rising above her past, while fighting to keep her
brother and three sisters together through it
all. Beautifully written, with heartbreaking
honesty, Etched in Sand is an unforgettable
reminder that regardless of social status, the American
Dream is still within reach for those who have the desire
and the determination to succeed.
