Caryn Hartman

Caryn Hartman got her BA in Anthropology and Religious Studies from the University of Colorado. After studying abroad in India, Nepal, and Tibet, she pursued her interest in Tibet. She got her MA from the University of Virginia in History of Religion with a focus on Tibet. After graduate school she began teaching in Denver Public Schools. She is excited to combine her passion for Tibetan culture with her love of children’s stories to create an awareness of Tibet’s plight.

Her second book, Dekyi's Dream, is a spin off of Dorje the Yak that follows a young girl on a journey of self identity and realization. Little Mountain, her third book, is about seeing one's own worth and surrounding oneself with love.

Caryn lives in Denver, Colorado with her husband, two boys, snuggly cat, and playful pup. She loves to travel, go on long road trips, and will jump at any chance to be surrounded by mountains.
