Lena Hanna was born and raised on Long Island and has lived there most of her life. She attended Baruch College, City University of New York, where she attained a degree in accounting and graduated magna cum laude. She has worked as an accountant since 2005 and enjoys life with her husband and two children. It was the birth of her son, Decklan, that inspired her to publish a children's book. He was born with a critical congenital heart defect and underwent open heart surgery at just five weeks old. The difficulties that her son and her family faced due to his condition had a profound effect on her. Lena set out to spread awareness on congenital heart defects. Her book, The Boy Born Blue: A Story of a CHD Superhero, follows the beginning of Decklan's journey. Lena hopes the story of her son will be inspirational and offer hope to all children, while also teaching them to fight against adversity. In the future, Lena's greatest hope is for a long, healthy life for her son and to see both her children thrive and prosper. She is currently writing a second children's book detailing her daughter's struggles with the transition of being an only child to becoming a sister of a child with a critical illness.
