About the Author

VIOLA ROWE’S first experience with printer’s ink came in the fifth grade when she was appointed School Reporter. The news items which she collected were printed in the Melrose Park paper, the Chicago suburb where she was born.

At seventeen she was hired by another suburban weekly, the Maywood Herald, as reporter, proofreader, and doer of assorted tasks. This led to writing a column called The Feminine Viewpoint, and shortly afterward she became associate editor of an affiliated newspaper.

Since Mrs. Rowe’s marriage, which ended her brief newspaper career, she has lived in Elmhurst, Illinois, where her son and daughter have grown up and have provided imagination for her writing of many books for teen-agers.
