Susanna Lane

After a rewarding career as a teacher of science, a visit to the Rocky Mountains led a spellbound Susanna Lane to resurrect stories from history and write about the settlement of the West. As part of absorbing details for the locales of her stories, she learned to ride horses, fit into cattle drives, and hike to remote regions of the Rockies.

Married for forty-three years to an avid gardener and traveler who shares her interest in historical locations, Susanna loves to visit new places, read, and spend time with family and friends. In addition to her spouse, she has two grown sons and their charming wives. Best of all, she has four darling grandchildren who fill her life with delight.

Susanna's debut novel, Imperfect Promise, took home both a Western Writers of America Spur Award and a Will Rogers Medallion Award.
