Making History into Fiction with Newbery Award Winner Karen Cushman by Wendy Mass K aren Cushman, winner of the Newbery Medal for her 1995 novel The Midwife's Apprentice and recipient of the Newbery Honor for her first book, Catherine, Called Birdy, has captured her audience's attention by recreating Medieval England with contemporary characters. She has always loved history and before becoming an author she worked in the Museum Studies department at JFK University. Her vast knowledge of the past comes to life in her historically set novels. Her latest release, The Ballad of Lucy Whipple, is set during the California Gold Rush; her next project will again transport readers back to the Middle Ages. Q: Did you write when you were a teenager? A: I wrote a lot when I was young stories, plays, poems, all kinds of things. When I was 13 or 14, I wrote an epic poem cycle based on the life of Elvis. I saved most of it and I also have notebooks filled with plots for Elvis movies because I thought he was getting a bad rap. Every time my heart was broken in a romance I wrote a poem about it. I didn't really think about being a writer when I grew up because I didn't exactly know that was something one could do write for a living. I knew secretaries and bus drivers and assembly line workers and my grandfather was a school crossing guard, but I didn't know any adults who wrote for fun, much less who did it for a living. It was just something I did for myself. I would have loved to have had something like

Catherine Called Birdy by Karen Cushman Catherine of Stonebridge, 13 years old in the year 1290 is the sulky and rebellious daughter of an insignificant knight. Her family is only just important enough to require her to behave like a lady and to marry whomever her parents decree and she resents it extremely. Hates: embroidery, spinning, making soap. Likes: reading, playing out and getting filthy. This is her diary. The first entry: 12th Day of September I am commanded to write an account of my days: I am bit by fleas and plagued by family. That is all there is to say. And continues to be equally funny. Unlike most such comedies this one is based on real historical research and the picture drawn of medieval life is quite authentic. Certainly Catherine is a perfectly possible character. Medieval women were not the down-trodden doormats of caricature: every family was different and every person an individual just as they are today. Either as a comedy or as a history it would be well worth while. As both it is not to be missed.
