Filomena Malvone, born in Brooklyn, New York, moved to Hanover, PA with her family at a very young age. She and her brother are co-owners of her family's restaurant (Jerry & Sal's Pizza) that has been a staple of their town for over 50 years. She and her two children enjoy traveling to Italy every year to visit family and friends. It was in the restaurant where she made the observation of the younger generation struggling with problem solving and bullying and was inspired to write What Would You Do If... Filomena enjoys her morning prayer/meditation time, spending time with her family, fiancé, CrossFit, golf, cooking, and her weekly dinners with her two best friends.
