Elaine Bossik is a novelist, screenwriter and editor. She grew up in Brooklyn, NY, and graduated from Brooklyn College (CUNY), where she earned BA and MS degrees. After teaching in the New York City school system for several years, she pursued a new career path, first as an advertising copywriter, and then as a medical writer and editor. She lives in Florida with her husband and family, where she enjoys Florida’s semi-tropical environment and pens her novels. The idea for Body Merchants grew out of the reality of human organ trafficking, and the big money behind it. In addition to Body Merchants, Elaine Bossik is the author of The Last Victim, a literary romance novel.
