Molly Fumia is the author of Honor Thy Children, the highly-praised story of AIDS, Homophobia, and one family's surprising survival. She also wrote three other books on the transformative power of grief: Safe Passage: Words to Help the Grieving, A Piece of My Heart, and A Child at Dawn, a personal story told with the help of her friend, Elie Wiesel. Fumia holds degrees from Santa Clara University and the Graduate Theological Union at Berkeley. She and her husband Chuck live in California and have six children. The Crush of Wine and War, her first novel, is the result of 30 years of Holocaust study and her close friendship with the family of a celebrated Austrian war resister, executed in 1943.
