Dr. Amie Harwick was one of a kind: intelligent, beautiful and a lover of all things macabre. As a famed Hollywood sex therapist she was a strong advocate for women as well as those marginalized for their sexual identities. She had an array of interesting hobbies and side gigs including modeling, go-go dancing and fire-eating. Yes, fire-eating! But someone in her life was hell-bent on bringing her down, and Amie's life was cut tragically short.
