Born homeless in rural Ethiopia in 1973, Sara was given up for adoption by her biological mother to Mennonite missionaries. Her new family returned to the United States in 1974 and eventually settled in Philadelphia, PA. Sara is inspired to become a voice to and for adoptees and their families by sharing her insights and experiences growing up in an interracial family and also as a trans-cultural adoptee. Currently, she lives with her two children in the Mt. Airy section of Philadelphia. Love for a Lion is Sara’s debut book.
