About the Author

---

David Nelson Wren started his career as a newspaper reporter and features writer in his native Texas. A darling of the Dallas social scene, he moved to Philadelphia in the late 1980s and soon found himself at Ardrossan as a guest of Hope Montgomery Scott. In short order he was welcomed into the tight-knit world of Philadelphia society, becoming involved in local charities and community organizations. By the late 1990s the idea for a book about Ardrossan was conceived, and Wren, by then a trusted Montgomery friend, was given unfettered access to the family archive. Since 2013, Wren has lived in Trumansburg, New York. He writes a column for the Ithaca Journal and together with his partner of twenty-three years operates Halsey House, noted as one of the best inns in the Finger Lakes region. Ardrossan represents the culmination of almost two decades of research.
