When strangers meet beautiful, personable Alexandra Mosca and learn what she does, at first they ask, Is this some kind of joke? But they soon find out she is dead serious and committed to her profession. Most people have difficulties believing it, but Alexandra Mosca is a funeral director and she has posed for Playboy. With the recent scandal over bodies discovered at a Georgia crematorium, politicians and news-casters are asking if funeral businesses should be regulated more strictly. Here is an insider, a female funeral director with provocative answers. Alexandra Mosca's questions about the business began when she attended a funeral director's institute and found only 13 percent of the students in the industry were women and gender discrimination was rampant. Nevertheless, she became a pioneering female in the funeral business. Mosca fascinates readers with firsthand insights and unforgettable anecdotes, shocked reactions when people learn what she does, the "Embalmer's 28 Commandments, " how she deals with the emotional side of coping with death on a daily basis and her recent duties for the plane crash victims in Rockaway, New York only a week after September 11. This "Model Mortician" is a dedicated, driven woman with a unique story. With the success of HBO's Six Feet Under, the cryptic lives of funeral directors are a hot topic. Grave Undertakings is an engaging, definitely original take on the world of glamour...and the business of death.
