Historians record the extraordinary events but omit the day-to-day life of ordinary people. Joyce Newcomb believes that historical fiction helps to remedy that exclusion. A former teacher and newspaper feature writer, Joyce has been a storyteller most of her life. Growing up in Glencoe, Illinois, she began early by making up ghost stories to tell friends around a campfire late at night. The rest, you might say, is history. A graduate of the University of Colorado, she is co-author of "Clippings of a Life," a biography of Wisconsin impressionist Francesco J. Spicuzza. Writer, teacher, advocate for the disabled—of all her many roles, the ones Joyce values most are mother and grandmother. She lives in Lake Forest, Illinois, where she reads, writes, and tends an ever-expanding garden.
