Pamela S. K. Glasner is a is a published author of fiction and non-fiction, a filmmaker, a social advocate, and a contributor to both the Huffington Post and Cabaret Scenes Magazine.
 
“Last Will and Embezzlement”, her critically-acclaimed documentary about the financial exploitation of the elderly, starring the late Hollywood icon, Mickey Rooney, was Ms. Glasner’s debut film. Inspired by true-life events in her own family, the film premièred in Manhattan in April 2012 to a standing-room-only house.
 
In addition to “Last Will and Embezzlement”, Ms. Glasner also produced a rockumentary called “Madder Than A Full Moon Dog”, a film based on her former company’s annual heavy-metal music festival in Leeds, England.
 
 Ms. Glasner also wrote several short stories, including “The Calicoon,” a thriller set in a deteriorating resort hotel in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, and “Wrong Side of the Pond”, a tale of sibling rivalry so extreme, it leads to kidnap and murder.  Ms. Glasner plans to eventually publish an anthology of all her short stories.
 
Her first full-length novel, admittedly her favorite of all her works, is “Finding Emmaus,” a factually and historically accurate dramatization which explores the treatment and mistreatment of the mentally ill over the course of about 350 years, and how society marginalizes and victimizes those deemed to be ‘different’ (aka ‘less than’).  Ms. Glasner’s first non-fiction book, “Silver and Gold,” was written in honor of her deceased parents and released on what would have been her father’s 93rd birthday. 

Originally from New York City, born in 1953, Ms. Glasner moved to Connecticut with her family at eighteen. A Dean’s List student, she graduated from Eastern Connecticut State University with a degree in English and secondary education, with concentrations in both psychology and sociology.  She recently returned to the world of academia to work on her post-graduate degree in Literature and Creative Writing at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
 
Ms. Glasner attributes her love of architecture and antique restoration—two aspects of her life which are woven into the fabric of “Finding Emmaus” — to her grandfather who, after emigrating to the US from Austria in the 1920’s, became an iron worker and joined the ranks of those who left their legacy in the form of New York City’s incomparable skyline. But her real hero, though gone nearly forty years, is still her grandmother, whose strength, courage and unfailing faith taught her that “nothing and no one can keep you from your heart’s desire without your permission and your cooperation.”
 
Ms. Glasner resides in rural Connecticut where she continues working on several new projects, including a musical play which has been endorsed by none other than one of the original Nederlander brothers, the world-famous Broadway producers.  She is a proud member of the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films, the Writer’s Guild of America, the CT Historical Society, the Royal Society of London, and the British Library.
