Presentation:
This is the story of how I conceived the book, the years of work on it and the contract signed with Ancestry to publish it and how it was self-published and then republished in its current and greatly improved form.
Speaker:
Born & raised in Denver attending Barnum, Rishel & West; then attending Mesa College when it was a junior college, took a year off to become a VISTA volunteer working in Baltimore in a Community Action Agency before returning to go to Greeley when it was called Colorado State College intending to become a history teacher.
A television production class changed my life and I spent 35 years in video production after graduating from the recently renamed University of Northern Colorado. Five years of winter survival training by living in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis & St. Paul taught me there were lots of smart people from Minnesota – including my grandmother.
I returned to Denver and divorced, was hired by the largest utility company in the state and worked there for 24 years when I was offered early retirement. Went back to school and got a masters degree in Library Science and worked at the Denver Public Library as an archivist and Reference Librarian until retiring in 2019.
