Lynn Hanna
For Lynn Hanna, the lush hills and mystical evening fog
that are so much the signature of the San Francisco Bay
Area have always brought to mind more distant shores. It's
not hard for her to transform the golden California coast
into a rugged cove hidden far off the remotest point in the
Orkney Isles or to have the sight of a thousand-year-old
Sequoia Redwood tree send her imagination racing back to
the day of the tree's birth. A native of Seattle, Washington, after her college years,
Lynn followed her heart to San Francisco. She has lived
close by ever since, raising her two children, working in
the fine jewelry industry, and pursuing the true love of
her life, storytelling. Her work has nurtured a passion for
doing research into the lives and culture of ancient
peoples and has provided her with the opportunity to learn
something very few people learn in modern times, Scottish
Gaelic. She has discovered that Gaelic is not just a means
of communication, it's also a channel into the nature of
that most complex and illusive commodity, the Gael
mindset. With family and friends close by, she dedicates her time
to "letting her characters tell their stories," to
enriching her education at a nearby university, and to
tending the small menagerie in her house and yard, some of
whom you might recognize from her work. Her goal is to
bring her stories to life for readers and to share her love
of all things Celtic.
