New York Times Best-Selling author Adriana Trigiani is a beloved writer by millions of readers all over the world. Reading an Adriana Trigiani book is like hot cocoa on a snowy day: wonderful, heart warming, and cozy. Her characters are charming and hilarious, with rich backgrounds. The author, director, and playwright chatted with me about her new movie and book.

You have some very exciting news! The movie you directed, “Then Came You,” is going to be in theaters soon.

“Then Came You” starring Craig Ferguson and Kathie Lee Gifford will be in theaters Sept. 30 and then available On Demand on Oct. 2. I directed it in Scotland in 2018.
