Renowned author Martha Grimes will be honored on June 18 at the Mountain Lake Park Town Hall from 2 to 4 p.m., as the town celebrates her literary accomplishments. Grimes has penned more than 30 books, four of which are based on her life and experiences growing up in Mtn. Lake Park. Her mother, June Grimes, owned and operated the famed Mtn. Lake Hotel, where Martha spent much of her childhood. The public is invited to attend the event, and the author has offered to autograph books for those who wish. The writer lives near Bethesda, and does visit Garrett County from time to time, although she no longer has family members in the area. Her son, Kent, a public relations executive, resides in Washington, D.C., as do her two grandsons. In addition to her writing career, she has made many strides in the area of animal protection, and has in the past donated up to 2/3 of her royalties to animal rescue and protection organizations.
