Reeve Lindbergh read from her mother’s writings to provide context for this, the final installment of her published diaries. Anne Morrow Lindbergh '28 married Charles Lindbergh and became a noted aviator in her own right, eventually publishing several books on the subject and receiving several aviation awards. She went on to write on many other topics and to raise a family. Gift from the Sea, published in 1955, earned her international acclaim. War Within and Without, the last installment of her published diaries, received the Christopher Award in 1980. Mrs. Lindbergh died in 2001 at the age of ninety-four.
Reeve Lindbergh is the youngest of Lindbergh's children, and the author of several books. These include the memoir of her childhood and youth, Under a Wing; No More Words, a description of the last years of her mother's life and Forward From Here, a memoir about entering her sixties.
