About Elizabeth Caulfield Felt
In addition to writing, I teach English part-time at the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point.
Before becoming a teacher, I worked for many years as a librarian: for a university (WSU), for a legislature (LA) and for a newspaper (Indpls Star).
Doing research is a lot like being a detective, and I enjoyed my time as a reference librarian. As a historical novelist, I combine my book fixation with my talent at finding obscure (but informative and authoritative!) internet sites.
I love to travel and have lived in Indiana, France, Indiana, California, Colorado, Louisiana, Idaho, Washington, Wisconsin, Germany and Wisconsin (in that order).
I’m an avid reader of nearly all genres and for all ages. Currently, I teach a course on Children’s Literature, which allows me to read a lot of excellent kids’ books and call it work!
I enjoy working with writers, leading workshops, and talking with school children. Please contact me at elizabethcfelt at gmail.com if you’d like me to visit your bookstore, classroom, or conference.

A fabulous young photographer took that picture. I got The Book Thief at the library, or I would loan it to you.
