Baltimorean Suzanna Rosa Molino is the author of Baltimore's Little Italy: Heritage and History of The Neighborhood and The Italian Immigrants' Daughter (coauthored with her mamma). Molino is the founder and volunteer director of the nonprofit Promotion Center for Little Italy, Baltimore. What fuels her writing about Italian heritage is a rich pride and profound passion in being Italian--the granddaughter of four immigrants from Vasto, Abruzzo, and Luras, Sardinia.
