How thrilling for me to return from a book tour in Elizabeth Hayes’s native north-central PA to find that the New York Times has featured Hayes in its “Overlooked No More” obituary series. Luckily, Bill Kunkle, a relative of Hayes, had given me some incredible family photos of her I’d never before seen. I was able to pass these along to the Times when they asked for pictures.
Many thanks to writer Steve Greenhouse, who did such a terrific job capturing Hayes’s essence, and to the people who laid out the page with the great photos.
