The Only Woman in the Room was great storytelling. Did you run across any conflicting information about her adopted son?
Marie Benedict
Thank you for your note -- and reading! Yes, I did come across lots of conflicting information about Hedy's adopted son, and that is why I had to fictionalize the circumstances around his adoption when I needed to address it in the book -- because it wasn't a settled issue. I discuss this in more detail in my Author's Note. Thanks again for reading and reaching out!

Hello Marie--I have read all your books and love them. I am wondering if you've ever considered writing about Emily Roebling, the wife of Brooklyn Bridge engineer John Roebling? It seems that Emily Roebling guided the construction of the BB after John Roebling died. It seems that she would make an interesting story, yes? I look forward to your reply. Thanks! Leslie

Hello. The other day I found your book “The other Einstein” and I cried. My middle name is Mylevva because of her and I never read something about her but reports. Obviously, I know and I´ve read as much as I could about her, but this has never been something different. I want to say thank you so much to show her to the world, she deserves to be known just as Albert does. I can´t wait to read your book. (?)
