Jo Carolyn Charles Anzalone was born in Seattle WA. A Navy brat, she lived in almost every seaport on both coasts until her father retired and bought an angus farm in upcountry SC, where she spent all her teen years. As an adult, she has resided in Indianapolis, where she taught school, then the Washington DC area and now has lived in five different locations in the metro Pittsburgh area so is very familiar with western Pennsylvania where the main parts of The Cavern of Deep Harmony are set. The book within the book is set in Colonial Williamsburg VA where her ancestors were among the earliest settlers. Her Facebook page for the book is: Jo Anzalone's The Cavern of Deep Harmony...and more.
