Lakewood, OH Author Publishes Memoir

I Am My Father's Daughter, a new book by Dawn DeFreeze-Carter, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

I Am My Father's Daughter is the compelling true story of author Dawn DeFreeze-Carter's journey to find love. At a young age, Dawn's life was forever changed by her father Donald DeFreeze's involvement in the Hearst kidnapping, and for a long time, his absence profoundly shaped her life in ways that were not always positive. However, through it all, she was being guided by another, her Father in Heaven, who loved her all along-even when she didn't always know it.

In sharing her story, Dawn hopes to inspire others and give them the tenacity to hope: with tragedy comes triumph.
