Hear the fascinating stories about the people, places, and events that shaped our “Keystone State” from award-winning author Ceane O’Hanlon- Lincoln at library on Monday, August 29 from 7:00-9:00 p.m. Ms. O’Hanlon-Lincoln, a native of Connellsville, Pennsylvania, reveals her ingenious talent for bringing history alive in each compelling chapter of County Chronicles: A Vivid Collection of Pennsylvania Histories, a five volume set which taps into the vast wealth of history that is embedded in Pennsylvania’s lush, rolling landscape.
Often called a “state-of-the-heart writer," O’Hanlon-Lincoln’s books, both non-fiction and fiction, include A Toast to Destiny, Great Poems of Our Time, Autumn Song, and the County Chronicles series. She has garnered the Editor’s Choice Award for her poem “The Man Who Holds the Reigns;” honors at Robert Redford’s Sundance Institute for two of her screenplays; and two Citation/Special Recognition Awards from the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and the Senate of Pennsylvania for her County Chronicles. In 2004, she was awarded the prestigious Athena Award, which is presented to professional “women of spirit.”
