As children, Eamon Dolan and his siblings were regularly beaten and subjected to emotional abuse by their mother. As an adult, Dolan tried to maintain ties with his mum, but she remained a destructive presence. So, 12 years ago, he cut ties and never spoke to his mother again for the rest of her life. Dolan is now the Vice President & Executive Editor at Simon & Schuster publishing. He's helped bring some of the most important literary voices to the page.
