 Author Christina Baker Kline visits Bryn Mawr. 

Christina Baker Kline with Mr. Waters, Sophie, and Sophia

On October 22nd author Christina Baker Kline visited Bryn Mawr. Ms. Kline is the author of the New York Times bestselling novel, Orphan Train. She first met with Mr. Waters' Creative Writing class where she discussed the writing process and took questions from the students. Sophie and Sophia then escorted her back to the library where they had a great informal chat and private book signing.   Both girls are big fans of Ms. Kline

Ms. Kline then delivered  a fascinating  assembly on the history of Orphan Trains in America. She shared that her husband's grandfather was a "train rider", and that it was while researching his family that she became interested in this unique event in American history.
