Lisajoy Sachs: Award Winning Historical Fiction Author

Описание: Good afternoon and welcome to another author interview here on the channel. Today, we are joined by Lisajoy Sachs, an award-winning author of historical fiction whose work explores memory, identity, and the enduring strength of the human spirit. Her debut novel, Bright One, launched a six-part World War II saga inspired by true stories from her own family ancestry. The novel established her as a powerful voice in multigenerational storytelling grounded in rigorous historical research and emotional authenticity.

The series continues with Golden Flight, scheduled for release in July 2026, and Aliyah Rising, forthcoming in 2027. The remaining titles in the completed saga include Folding Light, Restoring Hope, and Fading Night. Sachs has completed manuscripts for the entire six-book series, an ambitious literary undertaking that traces the lives, displacement, survival, and rebuilding of her ancestors across pre-war and wartime Europe.

Born and raised between Long Island and the Catskill Mountains of New York, Sachs was shaped by landscapes of sea and mountain that continue to influence the atmosphere and expansiveness of her fiction. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the City University of New York and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Alfred University. Her professional background reflects a lifelong dedication to craft and design, with experience spanning fine arts, interior design, metal smithing, lapidary arts, and the craft beer and hospitality industries. She is an Accredited Jewelry Professional through the Gemological Institute of America, a Certified Beer Server® through the Cicerone® Certification Program, and a graduate of the Hop & Brew School at Yakima Chief Hops.

With the eye of a visual artist and the discipline of a historian, Sachs writes with cinematic scope and layered emotional depth. Her work is driven by a profound commitment to preserving family history and honoring those whose stories might otherwise be lost to time. Through richly detailed narrative and immersive storytelling, she illuminates the fragile threads that connect past and present.

Now residing in the Catskills Mountains in New York, Sachs continues to write and research while embracing an active life filled with cycling, skiing, and travel with her partner and their standard poodle, Hops.
