Christina and Edward Sledge of Sledge House Media

Married couple, Edward and Christina Sledge wrote and published their memoir, The Story of Christina and I as well as Our Marriage: An Essay during the COVID-19 pandemic. The high school sweethearts met in Brooklyn, NY. Their romance was predestined from the start since they were both born in the same hospital and their families lived within blocks of each other. Their memoir is about triumph over tragedy. Both are first generation high school and college graduates. They were also the first to obtain their masters degrees in their families. They got engaged when Edward was a soldier in the U.S. Army while Christina was a senior at Temple University. They eloped two months later, and have been married for twenty one years.
