Authors Day Features Two Outstanding Colorado Authors
Buzzy Jackson is the author of To Die Beautiful, winner of a Colorado Book Award for Historical Fiction, and a finalist for the National Jewish Book Award.
From Good Reads: a gripping and timely debut novel, based on the true story of Hannie Schaft: a heroic young Dutch woman who joined the Resistance in Holland during World War II and became one of the Nazis' most wanted women. Alongside the heartrending story of Hannie, the book offers a timely look at how fascism flourishes and what good people do to fight back.
Jackson holds a PhD in history from the University of California, Berkeley, and lives in Colorado with her family and their free-thinking dog, Ralph. She is currently at work on her next novel, inspired by a historical true crime.
Michelle Theall is the author of The Wind Will Catch You, an eye-opening, gritty, and hopeful novel about upheaval and resilience, forgiveness and family, love and unexpected allies, all set in motion by issues of social justice and a broken American foster care system. In this powerful story, a young woman searches for the truth about her childhood, and what she finds forever alters her beliefs about home, identity, and family. In addition to her debut novel, Theall is also the author of three nonfiction titles, including her intriguingly titled memoir, Teaching the Cat to Sit.
An editor at Alaska magazine and an award-winning nature photographer (think grizzly bears), Michelle Theall splits her time between Kodiak, Alaska and Boulder, Colorado with her wife, their son, and two pups.
