Body Uptown: Customer Service Fairytales from the Financial Print IPO Market

Body Uptown is Laura Melia Kelly's hilarious, page-turning collection of stories about working in the high-pressure financial print industry at the height of the IPO market in late 1990's New York City. This is a rare, witty perspective into a 24-hour blackbox industry most people don't even know exists: an eccentric world of attorneys, bankers, issuers, and their financial printer. Come behind the front lines of Financial Print Customer Service, where amidst the frenetic preparation of SEC documents lies the poignant, the preposterous, the profane... also known as "the good old days." Told through humorous and relatable vignettes, the inexplicable edges of the human condition reveal themselves in this unparalleled collection based on real events.
