Christine's Story
After graduating from Hillsdale I attended Occidental College, College of San Mateo, and San Francisco State. Caught in the Vietnam tumult in the Bay Area, I spent some time in Canada, then returned in 1977 with my four-year-old son. I finished my BA (English) in '78 at SFSU and worked for Safeway where I met my present husband. When he retired in 1992, we began to travel regularly to Europe.

I serve as Managing Editor of the American Church Union, the publishing house of the Anglican Province of Christ the King, and have written numerous children's materials.
I live with my husband and two cats, Laddie and Lady Jane, in the Bay Area. I've been blessed with nine grandchildren who fill our home at Christmas, Easter, and summertime with their delightful exuberance and penetrating questions.
