Season 2 Episode 6 Author Christine Frisina_ An Inheritance of Stories

Christine Frisina writes from a place where memory, legacy, and courage intersect. Her “Lost” series began as a gift to her granddaughters as a way to show them that the impossible is often just the beginning. But the deeper she wrote, the more she realized these stories weren’t only for them. They were for anyone standing at the edge of their own unknown.Encouraged by industry legends and guided by trusted friends, Christine stepped fully into authorship with Lost in Japan, a story born from lived experience and the quiet determination that shapes a family across generations. That book opened the door to Lost in Silicon Valley, and now to her most personal work yet: Lost in Hollywood, the story of David Frisina—concertmaster, recording studio musician, and son of an Italian immigrant who arrived at Ellis Island in 1900 with nothing but a violin and a future.At the heart of Christine’s writing is a single question that continues to call her forward: “What does your inheritance require of you?”Through her books and conversations, Christine explores how the people who came before us—whether tender, distant, or difficult—shape the stories we are meant to tell. Her work is an invitation to look backward with honesty, and forward with purpose.This podcast follows Christine as she uncovers the threads of family, history, artistry, and identity that weave through her life and her writing. It’s about the courage to keep going, the responsibility of legacy, and the unexpected places we find ourselves when we follow the stories that refuse to let us go.A Production of Crimson Crow Press
