About The Author     

In March 2005, a life-changing turn of events brought Catherine J. Craig's busy life as an entrepreneur to a standstill. Unable to return to work due to unexpected health issues, Catherine capitalized on her unforeseen downtime to begin writing the book she'd dreamed of writing. Originally from Upstate New York, Catherine first planted both feet on Alaskan soil in 1990 to pursue a vision. Though that dream failed, it wasn't the first time she stepped out in faith to follow a dream.

     Much of Catherine's passion for life and her unstoppable faith is reflected in her writing. "The Golden Thread" is a rich revelation not only of Jewish history, but also of a broad spectrum of her personal convictions and intuitive beliefs about life, faith, and God. Anyone reading the well-thought-out text of this historical novel will be hard-pressed not to be caught up into each character's struggles to find answers, to make sense of their lives.
