<p>Veteran writer Leslie Gray Streeter established a loyal readership through her <em>Palm Beach Post </em>column, &quot;That Girl.&quot; Now a general entertainment columnist at the <em>Post,</em> her writing for the newspaper began in the early 2000s and eventually included mentions of Scott Zervitz, referred to in Leslie&#39;s column as The Gentleman Friend when she and Scott were dating, and The Mister after they married.  Baltimore natives who went to the same high school but didn&#39;t know each other well at the time, Leslie and Scott had re-met after 20 years and become soul mates for life. But tragedy struck in 2015, when 44-year-old Scott died of a heart attack and Leslie became a widow.  By her own admission, she was not cut out for the role.  Five years after Scott&#39;s death, Leslie shares her moving love story and twisty path through grief and loss toward healing in her new memoir, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Black-Widow-Sad-Funny-Journey-Normally/dp/0316490717/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=leslie+gray+streeter&qid=1580929021&sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><em>Black Widow: A Sad-Funny Journey Through Grief for People Who Normally Avoid Books with Words Like &quot;Journey&quot; in the Title</em></a>.  On the show and in print, Leslie has a few things to say about grief.  Aging, too.  </p><p>Buy <em>Black Widow:  </em><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Black-Widow-Sad-Funny-Normally-%C2%BFJourney%C2%BF-ebook/dp/B07V36GSY8/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=black+widow+leslie+gray+streeter&qid=1563914169&s=gateway&sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Amazon</a> | <a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/black-widow-leslie-gray-streeter/1132404619#/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Barnes and Noble</a><br>Leslie&#39;s website: <a href="https://lesliegraystreeter.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Leslie Gray Streeter</a><br>Columns in the Palm Beach Post: <a href="https://www.palmbeachpost.com/topics/leslie-gray-streeter" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">PB Post</a></p>
