Drinking With Authors | Featuring Marla A. White
Guest: Marla A. White loves putting together jigsaw puzzles (though she’s not sure that's all that interesting
). She owns a "sonic screwdriver" from the 10th Doctor from Doctor Who, and once took a horseback riding trip across "the rooftop of Wales" where her fear of heights was nearly her undoing! Author of Recipe for Murder: A Pine Cove Mystery (book 2)Drink of Choice: Grapefruit and Rose Vodka & tonic
Marla White kills people for a living—on paper, at least.
An award-winning mystery and suspense author with roots in Hollywood, Marla White made a striking debut with Cause for Elimination, earning recognition from Killer Nashville, the RONE Awards, Reader’s Favorite, and a second-place finish with the Orange County Romance Writers in Romantic Suspense.
Originally from Oklahoma, Marla carved her path through multiple states before landing in Los Angeles, where she built a career in television development and now teaches screenwriting at UCLA Extension—including the fine art of script coverage and story analysis.
When she’s not plotting her next murder (fictional, we promise), she can be found in her garden, on a hiking trail, cheering for the LA Kings, or field-testing craft cocktails in the name of research.
Book released on June 17

Drinking With Authors | Featuring David Bernknopf
Guest: David Bernknopf began work at CNN BEFORE it even went on the air. Is what you call an original CNN employee. He has flown (as a pool reporter) on Air Force 1 and has spent much of last year travelling the country attending live music events. Author of Two Years on Another Planet....or is it Alaska?
Drink of Choice: coffee in a special Alaska mug
The national news networks weren’t calling David Bernknopf with job offers anymore. If fact, they weren’t calling many journalists anymore.
So, after decades working at CNN and other national news operations, he took the only solid job offer he had: running a small investigative unit for Alaska’s News Source, a consortium of TV stations in “The Last Frontier.”
After two years learning how to survive the cold, the dark, the light and a totally unfamiliar culture, David wrote a fictionalized account of his time there: Two Years on Another Planet…or is it Alaska?
The novel provides a wry look at working far away from everyone you know…as well as many things you thought you knew. “Northern Exposure” in a TV newsroom, if you remember.
Bernknopf was an original CNN employee and covered politics, world affairs and economic stories for the network. He produced for Christiane Amanpour, Bernard Shaw and other well-known CNN talent for more than two decades. His last job at CNN was site producer at the scene of the United 93 crash on 9/11. His career also included a stint as a news producer for a nationally syndicated program produced out of Washington, DC and time running a video production company in Atlanta.
