[https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/obituaries/elizabeth-hyland-author/2012/05/01/gIQA7VIwuT_story.html] She was the author of numerous novels, novellas and non-fiction articles and was active in both Southern California and Northern Virginia, especially with the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Betty Hyland’s son Mark was diagnosed with schizophrenia in his 20s. Her candid and very personal writing about the impact of schizophrenia on families encouraged more open discussion of mental illness at a time when such openness was uncommon. Hyland was very influenced by the pathbreaking research of psychiatrist and author Dr. E. Fuller Torrey, which inspired her to dedicate the rest of her life to helping society understand this illness better. Hyland's best-known novel "The Girl With the Crazy Brother" published by Franklin Watts in 1987, about a teenager having trouble with her schizophrenic brother. The book became the basis for a 1990 CBS Schoolbreak Special teleplay directed by Diane Keaton[2] and starring Patricia Arquette. In the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards, Host Neil Patrick Harris referenced "The Girl with the Crazy Brother" in introducing Arquette.[3] Hyland won a grant to study the treatment of mental illness in China in 1989, and was doing her research there at the time of the Tiananmen Square events. She was also the winner of the 1993 Bryant Spann Memorial Prize from the Eugene V. Debs Foundation for her essay on schizophrenia, “First Person Account: A Thousand Cloudy Days,” originally published in 1991 in the "Schizophrenia Bulletin." [4] Elizabeth Ann Sheehan was born in Queens. She attended the Katharine Gibbs School in New York. She worked as a secretary in New York. Later she worked in the English Department at the California Institute of Technology. Even later she moved to northern Virginia in the early 1990s. She began writing in the late 1970s after moving to Altadena, California, where she became a regular contributor to local publications. Betty Hyland was a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers, Sisters in Crime, P.E.N.USA, and the National Alliance on Mental Illness . In addition to her books and articles on schizophrenia, she also wrote mysteries featuring Benedictine nuns, and many works. In "Hope in Hell," Hyland explored the psychology of a woman, the victim of abuse, who becomes a serial killer. “Tressa,” a novella about an Irish circus in Depression-era New York, drew extensively on the summers she spent in the 1930s and 1940s in Fort Edward, in Upstate New York. Excerpt from "A Thousand Cloudy Days"…"He stands alone. Did the awful, gnawing aloneness he always feels make him seek a lonely place, or did the people waiting outside the station instinctively move away from him? Perhaps he sat in the waiting room laughing to himself -- or rather to those voices he hears that no medication seems to drive away completely. Or had he been pacing back and forth and back and forth and back and forth? His pacing could wear a groove in a stone floor." Selected bibliography of novels and poetry
