Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

About the Authors Darwin Porter, a native of North Carolina, was assigned to write the very first edition of a Frommer's guide devoted solely to one European country. Since then, he has written many best-selling Frommer's guides to all the major European destinations. In 1982, he was joined in his research efforts by Danforth Prince, formerly of the Paris bureau of The New York Times, who has traveled and written extensively about Europe. All four of Joseph S. Lieber's grandparents emigrated from Eastern Europe at the turn of the 20th century, settling in New York City, where he was born and raised. Mr. Lieber lived in Hungary for several years in the early 1990s. He presently practices law in Boston and is the coauthor of Frommer's Budapest & the Best of Hungary and Frommer's Europe from $70 a Day Christina Shea served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Hungary and subsequently directed Peace Corps language-training programs in Lithuania and Kyrghyzstan. She's the author of the novel Moira's Crossing (St. Martin's) and a coauthor of Frommer's Budapest & the Best of Hungary and Frommer's Europe from $70 a Day. Robert Emmet Meagher, a dual citizen of Ireland and the United States, is professor of humanities at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts.

George McDonald has lived in Amsterdam and Brussels as a former editor of the Sabena Belgian World Airlines and deputy editor of the KLM Royal Dutch Airlines in-flight magazines. He is now a freelance journalist and travel writer, and has written extensively about the Netherlands and Belgium for international magazines and guidebooks, such as Frommer's Amsterdam and Frommer's Belgium, Holland & Luxembourg. Sherry Marker's love of Greece began when she majored in classical Greek at Harvard. She has studied at the American School of Classical Studies in Athens and studied ancient history at the University of California at Berkeley. Author or coauthor of a number of guides to Greece (such as Frommer's Greece and Frommer's Greek Islands), she has published articles in The New York Times, Travel & Leisure, and Hampshire Life. She's also the coauthor of Frommer's Europe from $70 a Day and has written books on a variety of subjects, including a history of London for young adults. Hana Mastrini is a native of the western Czech spa town of Karlovy Vary who became a veteran of the "Velvet Revolution" as a student in Prague in 1989.
