Gloria Waldron Hukle , a native and resident of New York State, is an llth generation Waldron in the line of the New York Dutch Waldron family upon which the l7th century epic saga, MANHATTAN SEEDS OF THE BIG APPLE, published in 2006, is based. 2007 saw the publication of THE DIARY OF A NORTHERN MOON, a 20th century mystery focusing upon the New York Adirondack Waldron family. The third of the Waldron Series books, "Threads An American Tapestry" is a meshing of several, early l8th century, New York Hudson Valley families, including the colonial Waldrons residing in Manhattan as well as Albany, New York. The central character of this third novel is Margaret Vandenberg, the daughter of a Dutch father and an American Indian mother. This new, well researched novel actually follows MANHATTAN SEEDS OF THE BIG APPLE chronologically.
A student of history, Gloria’s objective is to arouse an awakening in New York State’s uniquely diverse history through story by spotlighting the early Dutch, African Americans, and American Indians of New York State and by relating their contributions to the development of American culture.
Her commitment has taken her to schools, libraries, book clubs, and historical associations around New York State as well as Pennsylvania. Many of these engagements can be viewed on this site.
