Sit, Cinderella, Sit

A Mostly True Memoir
Lisa Cheek loved editing TV commercials - almost as much as she loved her dog, Ron Howard. Then, she 'aged out' of advertising, at 45. After being let go, Lisa got a call - at 2:45 AM - from a director who, like everyone in Hollywood, had a film he wanted to make: the original Cinderella story. Now, his dream could come true - if Lisa granted his wish. In Sit, Cinderella, Sit, Lisa Cheek shares her adventures in editing a film made on location in China - along the Tibetan border - where Mandarin was the only language spoken by everyone but her. Stuck in a house with fourteen men she couldn't understand, literally, she yearned for conversation and coffee. But there were moments of wonder and laughter. Lisa forged a bond with her translator and a woman named Sunny. She rescued one dog, and then another. 'Everyone speaks Cinderella,' the director had assured her. Maybe he was right. Told with humor and heart through a fairy tale lens, with flashbacks into the author's not-always-happy childhood, Sit, Cinderella, Sit is a story about what can happen when you take a leap of faith, look and hear beyond people's differences, and dare to believe in yourself.
