Stacey Lee writes historical fiction for young adults. Her novel, Under A Painted Sky, was the Centre County Reads selection this year. It follows a Chinese girl and a runaway slave as they seek freedom on the Oregon Trail — masquerading as boys. Lee discussed the book, writing diverse characters and growing up Asian-American with WPSU's Eleanor Klibanoff at the Nittany Lion Inn in March.
