Description

In this episode I speak with Cristen Hemingway Jaynes, who is the author of Ernest's Way, a travel biography about her great-grandfather, Ernest Hemingway. The book traces Hemingway’s world travels and life abroad. Each chapter is dedicated to a different place like Key West, Paris, or Venice. And she takes you through all his favorite haunts, where he lived, where he ate, and of course, where he drank. It's part travel guide and part biography.

Christen holds an MA in Creative Writing from Birkbeck, University of London. She has a JD and an Ocean & Coastal Law Certificate from University of Oregon School of Law. She is a writer at EcoWatch and a passionate advocate for environmental issues. 

Cristen is the author of a short story collection called The Smallest of Entryways. And she’s working on another book with stories about her travels around the US and Europe.
