Bryn E. Leetch is one of the premier hairstylists in the glamorous world of Hollywood. She has worked on the sets of blockbuster series such as Pirates of the Caribbean, The Avengers, and The Hunger Games.

Yet when the pandemic of 2020 started, she was among the millions of Americans displaced from their lives by quarantine measures. The experience has not only reshaped the way she had seen the world but also taken her down a new, unexpected path of authorship.

In 2022, she published Beneath the Mask, a mixed yet moving collection of poetry, personal accounts, reflections, and words of encouragement that were inspired by her pandemic experience.

For many people, the pandemic was a traumatic experience that played out at a traumatically slow pace. Leetch not only takes readers on a journey to her experience of it but also a journey on how it affected many other lives.

Several of the poems packed in her book talk about the severe cultural clashes that just boiled to the surface in American society. It also talks about the loss of very important people both close to Leetch as well as other tragic deaths mourned by American society at large.

Its not all words either. The book also contains a number of photographs, sketches, and other works of visual art with very powerful imagery on life during the pandemic.
