"Dale Hollerbach Fife, author of two dozen books -- all but two of them children's stories -- and more than 60 short stories and articles... (was) Born in Toledo, Ohio, Mrs. Fife moved west in the 1920s to Tonopah, Nev, to work as a secretary in a family silver mine. After marrying, she and her husband settled in San Francisco in 1929, moving to the Peninsula a decade later. Mrs. Fife got her start in writing by entering contests for slogans and jingles for products. "She had an incredible amount of success," said her son, Duncan Fife. "She won our first television set. She won the first Bendix washer, a thing that had to be bolted to the floor. She won a Frigidaire, a diamond ring from Gensler-Lee." " (from Wikipedia); Signed by Author.
