About the Speaker:
Randi Samuelson-Brown is originally from Golden, Colorado but now lives in the rollicking city of Denver. A passion for Colorado history was instilled by her father from childhood, and to this day she feels haunted by the West’s lesser-known histories (the dark side) and their long-reach into the present. Award winning Market Street Madam (originally titled The Beaten Territory) is her first published work (Historical Fiction). The Bad Old Days of Colorado: Untold Stories of the Wild West (Two Dot 2020), her first non-fiction, was a finalist in the 2021 Colorado Book Awards in History and was featured on C-SPAN. When not writing, in her free time Randi can be found riding horses and traveling around Colorado and the West, finding inspiration from people, places, and whispers from the past.
