ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Lois Dahlberg was born July 2, 1916 to Ernest Fowler and Pearl (Posey) Harris in Courtenay, North Dakota, and was raised in Minnesota. Since 1942 she has lived in the Tacoma, Washington, area, where she completed her education, graduating from the first Certified Dental Assistant class held at Tacoma Vocational-Technical College in 1958.
Lois loves people, especially the little ones. Her greatest wish, she confided, is to have a close, individual relationship with each one of her descendants.
After being widowed in 1994, Loiss writing pursuit has taken precedence over other hobbies and interests. She calls herself a late bloomer and can still be found participating in creative writing classes.
Much of this writers work has been published in magazines, newspapers, and anthologies. She has taught genealogy classes and still has great interest in family history, nonfiction, and poetry.
With her husband of 60 years, R. Russell Dahlberg, she raised a successful family of four children: Ralph, Gordon, and Lyle Dahlberg, and Annette Dahlberg Curran. Her descendants, many of whom are being educated in Washington, California, Idaho, Utah, Oregon, and Arizona, now number 75. This includes two great-great grandchildren living in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
Lois is proud to be a member of the International Society of Poets, the Tacoma Writers Club, Friends of the Parkland/Spanaway Library, and Daughters of the American Revolution.
