One Woman’s Journey …

 …a journey covering eighty-plus years which took the author her through prisons and hospitals and beyond.  With her keen eye for seeing drama and significance in everyday events, Frances Utterback Crain provides the reader with her special viewpoint on real life things that happened to real live people.  For example…

What’s the Significance of a Toothpick?

 In “Uncle Floyd’s Toothpick” Crain demonstrates that there is one perspective for a serious and sincere five-year-old and quite another for her middle-aged uncle who enjoys a good joke.  Among other memorable characters you’ll meet Jim, the Western pony with a still-tender spot left from the branding iron, and a school teacher who kept her students in line with a bullwhip.

 

   Frances Utterback Crain figured out how to be a successful career woman and single parent decades before society caught up to her and provided the labels. She holds a BA from University of Illinois and completed graduate work at Purdue University which prepared her for her long career in dietetics and nutrition.

Mrs. Crain makes her home in Memphis, TN where she is famous for hosting her "come one, come all" Sunday Brunches...so if you are ever in town on a Sunday morning, check to see if the flag is flying, and go on in...she'll be glad to have you!
