  • Matt Christopher
    MATT CHRISTOPHER “I’m a dreamer. Writing fulfills my Dreams……I am my own fantasy island.” -- Matt Christopher “What Writing Means To Me” Matthew Frederick Christopher (1917-1997) was born the first of nine children on Aug. 16, 1917, in the mining town of Bath, PA to Fred and Mary Christopher. Matt’s mother and father were recent Hungarian and Italian immigrants respectively. His father struggled carving out a minimal living as a Depression Era laborer in the mining industry. It was evident early on to the Christopher’s that their eldest son was of the athletic sort. When not actively engaged in his household chores, young “Matty” was outside playing baseball in the pastures or basketball in the barn. He excelled in nearly every sport he attempted and played baseball and football while attending High School in Ludlowville, NY. After graduation in 1935, he continued to play both basketball and baseball. Of the two, his talents were more pronounced as a switch-hitting third baseman. While working for the Cayuga Rock Salt Co. as a laborer during the day, Matt played for a semi-professional league in his off-hours. For two months in 1937, Matt realized his dream and briefly found himself a professional baseball player. He played in the Class C minor leagues with the Smith Falls Beavers of Ontario, Canada. Matt’s professional career started out well with two hits in four at-bats and two RBIs in his first game. He soon found major league pitching too tough to hit consistently and he was cut from the team.
