A.J. Tata, Brigadier General, U.S. Army (Ret.), commanded units in the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions and the 10th Mountain Division. His last tour was in Afghanistan in 2007 where he earned the Combat Action Badge and Bronze Star Medal. He is the bestselling author of the Captain Jake Mahegan and Threat Series. He has appeared as a foreign policy guest commentator on numerous outlets, including Fox News and CNN.




ABOUT HIS BOOK CHASING THE LION




Few thriller writers today have the background and experience of A.J. Tata: bestselling author, and more so, decorated Brigadier General (U.S. Army - Ret.). His latest thriller, CHASING THE LION (St. Martin's Publishing Group; on sale date June 1, 2021; $27.99), introduces his new lead character, Army Lieutenant General Garrett Sinclair, in a tale that feels all too real in the world we live in.




America is on the verge of history - the inauguration of our country's first female President is rapidly approaching. At the same time, intelligence has uncovered a frightening plot led by Iranian Quds Force Commander General Dariush Parizad, known as The Lion of Tabas. Parizad has his hands on a psychoactive nerve agent. A viral spread of this agent would result in thousands, if not millions, of deaths initially and over time.




The largest crowd ever for an inauguration is expected in Washington D.C. - the perfect target for Parizad. Garrett Sinclair and his team race against time to prevent a catastrophe of epic proportions. As his team plumbs the depths of their mission a more sinister and personal mystery comes into clear focus: was Garrett Sinclair's wife murdered for her connection to the president-elect? Sinclair now has two puzzles to solve - his wife's murder and stopping the madman Parizad who continues to be one step ahead of Sinclair and his team. Time is running out.




CHASING THE LION feels like it's jumped straight off the headlines of today's newspapers and landed in our laps. With all that is happening in the U.S. and around the globe, the sensation that this could be an all-too-real story never leaves the reader as you dart from page to page. The author's career in the military, especially in the global hotspots where he's led U.S. troops, lends an air of complete authenticity to both the story and the characters. A new hero is in town, at a time when the country and the world needs him.




Praise for A.J. Tata and CHASING THE LION







"Tata proves he is at the top of his game with CHASING THE LION, a thriller that spans the globe seemingly one step ahead of the headlines."-Jack Carr, New York Times bestselling author of Savage Son




"A taut thriller that delivers blistering action and mind-blowing tension. Garrett Sinclair is a powerhouse of a hero, and CHASING THE LION is exactly the type of smart and propulsive tale that will keep readers turning pages and anxiously awaiting future installments."-Mark Greaney, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Minute Out




"Full of energy and snapping with action, CHASING THE LION is Tony Tata at his best. A timely read that's right on target."-Marc Cameron, New York Times bestselling author

To say Tedi Brunetti has “seen everything” during her career in music would be a vast understatement. The drummer, singer and songwriter from Pittsburgh grew up listening to songs on a transistor radio while banging away on a hamper and old hat boxes. Describing herself as a “sober Janis Joplin meeting Steely Dan in Memphis,” it wasn’t long before Tedi was touring with New York City’s The Impalas, Toronto’s infamous B-Girls and performing with Isis’ Carol MacDonald before finally deciding to launch her solo career.

Tedi wraps the psyche in luscious vocals. Each song charming and engaging you in an intimate conversation, as you forget she's singing, the story unfolds. Tedi balances her humorous observations and mature intention lyrically while she drives and defines the band from her drum throne. She may yet be the Queen of Pittsburgh!

Tedi’s current music project is a full-length album titled Queen of Pittsburgh. It will feature a mix of songs ranging from blues shuffles to more eclectic originals clearly influenced by classic rock, jazz and blues. Queen of Pittsburgh is being produced by Dean Allen Sargent ( Public Enemy, Taylor Dayne, Blue Oyster Cult,) who also co-wrote some of the tracks and Michael Henegan (Sonny Rhodes, Lonnie Shields, Randy Lippincott). The album is slated for a 2021 release and will be available on all major streaming services, including Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon. Physical copies will be available for purchase via her official website.

When she isn’t working on music, Tedi spends much of her time traveling, often visiting several major cities in one trip. She and her husband have hit the road to enjoy BBQ in hotspots like Nashville, Memphis, New Orleans, Austin and San Antonio. They are also fans of the Pittsburgh Pirates, Steelers and Penguins and have traveled to see the teams play several road games over the years. Tedi loves to cook for her family, seeing herself as the “Italian grandma who cooks for all the holidays.”

Bennett, formerly E. Bennett, a transgender singer/rapper and songwriter. Raised in New York City, Bennett's passion for music started as young as 2 years old. Growing up in the chaos of the city, music helped raise him. With diversity around every corner, he soon fell in love with all genres of music. Early on, he gained inspiration from singers like Mariah Carey and Michael Jackson, and the artists out today like Chris Brown, The Weeknd, and Drake. “Growing up transgender was not easy and what made it easier was having music with emotional and heart felt lyrics to be able to express what I could not.”
​
In 2012, Bennett got his start as an entertainer when he was signed to Look A Likes USA as a Justin Bieber impersonator. He traveled all over the country performing Justin’s songs and dances in baseball stadiums and special events, all of which he sang live and carefully learned the dances to go with the songs. After his contract was up, he decided he was going to become his own artist and start making his own music.
​
Having gone through many trials and tribulations, years of dedication and not giving up, he soon found his way to making music his life. He has gone on to work with artists like Bizarre from D12 and Dribbz, a talented artist from the U.K.; producers like Eldar-Q and Legion Beats. Having released 3 albums and much more music on the way, he is currently releasing his new docu-series called "Being Bennett" on YouTube, where he goes in depth about his life as a transgender musician. He looks forward to the next chapter in his music career as he continues to grow and mature as an artist.

EXCLUSIVE: This letter ( https://www.sba-list.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Coalition-Letter-HYDE-SAVES-LIVES.pdf ) was sent today urging Congress to protect the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits taxpayer funding of abortions.
