There's No Way That You're Going To Believe This Story Brenda Coffee's Maya Blue A Memoir Of Survival

Arroe Collins: Unplugged & Totally Uncut

It was a fairy tale until it wasn’t…For a long time, that’s what successful businesswoman Brenda Coffee told herself whenever she dared to look back on her twenties and thirties. In Maya Blue: A Memoir of Survival (She Writes Press/ Distribution by Simon & Schuster; May 20, 2025), Brenda opens up about the life she once lived—and all the secrecy, madness, trauma, abuse, and danger that came with it.
Brenda details her years married to Philip Ray, the genius who conceived and developed the first desktop computer terminal, followed by the microprocessor and the first personal computer. Their infamous and isolated home in San Antonio, Texas was known as the “Spy House on the Hill” for its scandalous history of harboring Nazis spies. It was in the basement of their historic home where Philip began spending every waking moment working on his self-destructive “project,” making cocaine from scratch -- becoming addicted to it in the process.
