Diane Telgen

Diane Telgen is a longtime author and editor of reference books, including Defining Moments: The Gilded Age, and holds an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts. Growing up in Michigan, she loved myth and legends about fantastical creatures but was equally fascinated by stories about life long ago. She loved combining both these interests--history and the supernatural--for the Spooky America series.
