Mark Dagostino is a New York Times Bestselling co-author, and a former Senior Writer at People Magazine. He is proud to announce the release of two new books in 2016:~ "The Magnolia Story" with Chip & Joanna Gaines, the stars of HGTV's "Fixer Upper!"

The now-infamous formerly undocumented Mexican immigrant who secretly became a VP at Goldman Sachs, Julissa has had lots of press on her story in the last year, but her book tells the whole story for the first time--from her charmed childhood in Mexico, to her assimilation into American culture, to the change in Texas law that gave her the right to pursue a college education, all the way through finally becoming a U.S. Citizen and taking the courageous step to share her story with the world. In 2015, Mark Dagostino released THREE books. (It was a big year that was three-years in the making!)~ "Fast N' Loud: Blood, Sweat and Beers" with Richard Rawlings (William Morrow) tells the behind-the-scenes tale of Discovery Channel's biggest bad-boy car star. ~ "Elle & Coach: Diabetes, the Fight for my Daughter's Life, and the Dog who Changed Everything" with Stefany Shaheen (Hachette Books) is the heartwarming and hopeful tale of a Type A mom struggling to care for her daughter with type 1 diabetes--and the medic-alert dog who brings them a newfound peace that medical science has yet to deliver. ~ And "Accused: My Fight for Truth, Justice & the Strength to Forgive" with Tonya Craft (BenBella Books) is the first-hand account of the Georgia schoolteacher who overcame a modern-day Witch Trial when she was falsely accused of molesting three children. Also in 2015, fans enjoyed the paperback release of two of his previous books: Gavin MacLeod's autobiography, "This is Your Captain Speaking;" and General Rick Lynch's powerful leadership book, "Adapt or Die."Mark's previous books include Hulk Hogan's "My Life Outside the Ring," Notre Dame legend Rudy Ruettiger's "Rudy: My Story," and the book that helped launch former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty's 2012 Presidential campaign, "An American Story."For more--including exclusive pictures, behind-the-scenes anecdotes, and occasional giveaways--be sure to visit Mark's Author Page on Facebook.
