Congratulations to Wheatmark author Ann M. Haralambie!

Her book, Not Nicholson: The Story of a First Daughter, An Adoption Search and Reunion Memoir was reviewed in the Arizona Daily Star.

Here’s a snippet:

“Dogged” doesn’t begin to describe Tucson attorney Ann Haralambie in her search for her birth parents. “Indefatigable ” might do. Even “compulsive.” But if you’d want an advocate to track down your own family, you’d want a Haralambie on your team.

You can check out the full review here and can find Ann’s book review at the end of the article.
