Author Talk with S.K. DeMarinis

Oregon author S.K. DeMarinis will present on her new book, Hidden in Haarlem.  Her latest work weaves the true stories from an interview with an elder who survived WWII in Holland as a teenager.  Many stories tell of war heroes and the persecuted, but this novel aims to bring to light stories of the regular folks who tried their best to bring a horrific war to a close.

Author S.K. DeMarinis retired after 30 years as a chiropractor and took up writing novels to broaden her passion for storytelling.  Hidden in Haarlem, her fourth novel, weaves the true stories from an interview with a 95-year-old elder who survived WWII in Holland as a teenager.  She presents a 1-hour slideshow of her research of old newspapers, vintage photos, documents of other survivors, and digital encyclopedia references.
