Amanda Berry vanished on the night of April 21, 2003, in Cleveland, Ohio, one day before her 17th birthday. She was held prisoner by Ariel Castro, suffering abuse at his hands for more than 10 years. Berry had a daughter while being held captive, and a paternity test conducted after her escape proved that Castro was the father. She escaped in May 2013 and was able to get help to rescue the other two victims, Michelle Knight and Gina DeJesus. The women's harrowing ordeal made the case a media sensation. Amanda coauthored the book Hope: A Memoir of Survival in Cleveland with Gina DeJesus detailing their experiences at the hands of Castro.
