SUMMARY:Author Talk Series - Shannon M. Parker
DESCRIPTION:Our Author Talk series continues with Shannon M. Parker on August 6. \nShannon M. Parker is the author of three novels\, including the critically-acclaimed The Girl Who Fell and The Rattled Bones\, which explores the history and cultural erasure of Maine’s Malaga Island. Set in midcoast Maine\, Love & Lobsters is her adult debut and was immediately optioned for film.   \nShannon has a deep reverence for kindness and laughter\, wide and wild philanthropy\, and leaving a quiet\, impactful footprint. She’s traveled to 38 countries across 5 continents and is always honored to call Maine home. As an author and educator\, she holds degrees in English Literature\, Applied Linguistics\, and Educational Leadership from Saint Michael’s College\, UMass Boston\, and University of Southern Maine respectively. Most recently\, she earned her (final) Masters at Harvard University because she thought it was about time to study creative writing. She can usually be spotted kayaking or venturing to the water in her happy\, blue antique pick-up.
