Notă biografică
Phyllis Pahl Mitchell was born in Nebraska in 1921, daughter of sharecroppers. She grew up on a series of farms where she and her her parents and five siblings lived off the land without electricity, running water, or plumbing. They survived droughts, dust storms, floods, locusts, and wartime shortages. As a young adult, Phyllis taught at one-room prairie schools, as well as bigger schools. During World War II, she worked as a telegraph operator and station manager. She married Clifford Mitchell, also from Nebraska, and the two moved to the Seattle area where they raised three sons. Throughout her life, Phyllis has pursued many interests including travel, painting, gardening, genealogy, history, and writing. She lives in SeaTac, Washington.
