TIMOTHY CHRISTIAN graduated as a Commonwealth Scholar from King’s College, Cambridge. He served as a law professor and Dean at the Faculty of Law at The University of Alberta and a visiting professor in Japan and Taiwan. Christian read A Moveable Feast in the cafes of Aix-en-Provence when he was a young man studying French. Realizing that no one had written deeply about Mary Welsh Hemingway, Christian began researching her story–and discovered a woman vital to Hemingway’s art. Christian is married to lawyer and abstract artist Kathryn Dykstra, and they live in a Mediterranean microclimate on Vancouver Island’s beautiful Saanich Inlet.
