A Stay in Hamburg’s The Bismarck
How a couple transformed a storied property in the borough to a fabulous bed and breakfast.
I've spent my life in the wordsmithing trade – 23 years as a reporter/editor/columnist at the Reading Eagle; editor of the Historical Review of Berks County, editor and columnist at The Ephrata Review and contributing writer to Berks County Living since its inception. I’ve also contributed to other regional and state publications. I love people and telling their stories. I’m married to Tom Knause, retired Reading Eagle news editor, have one son, Harry TR Knause, and two grandkids, Hunter, 8, and McKenna, 2. In my spare time, I'm president of Reading City Council and on boards of Pagoda Foundation and Berks History Center.
