Meet the Author: Linda Cardillo

Linda will share her newest book Paint the Wind.

Maya Sircos, the daughter of a Greek shipping entrepreneur and an Austrian aristocrat, has never quite fit into the upper class world of Vienna in 1900.
Caught up in the crucible of intellectual, artistic, and scientific transformation that defined the city as the cultural capital of Europe, she defies her upbringing and scandalizes both her family and Viennese society by becoming the muse and model for a brilliant young Expressionist artist.
When challenged to create art herself rather than continue as the object of someone else’s vision, she is driven to reinvent herself as an artist in her own right.
A story of art, passion, and the will to create.

Linda Cardillo is an award-winning author of historical fiction and historical romance. She writes about the old country and the new, the tangle and embrace of family, and finding courage in the midst of loss.
