Caroline Bancroft was a third generation Coloradan who began her literary career by joining the staff of The Denver Post in 1928. For five years she edited a book page and wrote historical features for the Sunday edition. On a travel assignment for the New York Evening Post, she interviewed a long list of celebrated authors in New York, London, Paris, Holland, and India. Her articles have appeared in many nationally known magazines.
