Kathleen Murray Moran’s first husband was an NYPD Bomb Squad technician killed in the line of duty by a terrorist bomb. She has written a superb memoir of the tragic loss of her husband Brian Murray after terrorists placed a bomb in Grand Central Station.

Our conversation starts with her bleak childhood in a Bronx basement and how her lifelong love of reading and writing took her to college at age 30. It’s the story of a gifted and disciplined writer who has mastered the craft of non-fiction narrative.
