Loving Through Bars by Cynthia Martone
Written by an experienced public school administrator, this is an examination of the instability and uncertainty that plague children with a parent or parents in prison. These children are themselves victims of their parents' crimes, members of a neglected segment of society, potentially damaged by shame and stigma, and who are at risk of being drawn into a cycle of deviant social behaviour and future criminality. Cynthia Martone offers a searing and poignant view of these unfortunates through a series of moving first-hand stories.
Cynthia Martone has been a public school administrator in a remote Eskimo village in Alaska, and in Rochester, New York where she was awarded the Outstanding Educator Award for the State of New York. She has spoken at both national and state conferences as well as written about children who have parents in prison. Her work has appeared in Education Week, Journal of School Administrators Association of New York State, and The Teacher Magazine. She now resides in Erie, Pennsylvania where she is principal of Villa Maria Academy High School.
