Pen/Faulkner’s Founding Friends Luncheon with Sarah Wildman

Alma and John Pat were the hosts of the Jan. 29 literary luncheon co-chaired by Katherine Field Stephen and Willee Lewis. The author of “Paper Love: Searching for the Girl My Grandfather Left Behind” spoke of how her discovery of a cache of letters written to her grandfather revealed a love affair torn asunder by Nazi-occupied Austria. On a lighter note, host John Paty told the overflow crowd, “We had to break out the Christmas china.”
