Off the Page: Lucy H. Hedrick

Join author Lucy H. Hedrick as she transports us to 1930s Reno and its famed “Divorce Colony,” sharing the real‑life history that inspired her debut novel Six Weeks in Reno. Set against the backdrop of Depression‑era Nevada, the story follows women seizing independence through Nevada’s six‑week residency law and “divorce ranches.” Hedrick’s evocative narrative brings to life the resilience and transformation of her characters during this turbulent era.
