Cheryl Strayed: A Journey of Words and Wilds

By Petrovic Press

In the small town of Spangler, Pennsylvania, on September 17, 1968, a girl named Cheryl Nyland was born, destined to touch the world with her words and resilience. Cheryl's early life was a tapestry of hardships and beauty. Her family's move to Chaska, Minnesota, following her parents' divorce and her father's departure, marked the beginning of a life shaped by change and challenges.Cheryl's mother, Barbara Anne "Bobbi" Lambrecht, was a pillar of strength and love in her life. The family's move to rural Aitkin County to a self-built house without electricity or running water was a testament to their spirit of adventure and resilience. Cheryl's bond with her mother would later become a central theme in her life and writing.A bright student, Cheryl graduated from McGregor High School in 1986. Her world, however, was shaken in 1991 when she lost her mother to lung cancer. This loss was a crucible that forged much of Cheryl's later path and writing. She channeled her grief and confusion into exploration, both of the world and of herself.
