J.J. Anselmi's Out Here on Our Own tells the story of Rock Springs, Wyoming, a mining boomtown with a history of brutal racial violence, widespread addiction, prostitution, and a staggeringly high per-capita suicide rate--yet a place that has proved remarkably resilient. Anselmi stitches together an array of original interviews with people who've seen those things firsthand, tracing the boom-bust trajectory of a town known for its corruption, vice, and violence. Amid such horrors as the massacre of Chinese miners in 1885 and the ongoing methamphetamine and opioid epidemics, the town has fought hard to keep its identity of rugged individualism intact. In 2022 Rock Springs is slipping into yet another bust. Anselmi's narrative offers searing personal accounts of a community in crisis, whose problems are fanned by severely limited mental health resources, dying industries, and Wyoming's still-pervasive idea that people should deal with their troubles alone. In a community's own words, Out Here on Our Own depicts a place that's as tough and weathered as the sagebrush and sandstone surrounding it.

This process transformed Diane into an advocate for increased conversation end-of-life care and the right to die on one’s own terms, as well as a brave and sympathetic voice for anyone who must learn how to live again after bereavement.
