Linda Strader, Author of Summers of Fire: A Memoir

Originally from Syracuse, New York, Ms. Strader moved to Prescott, Arizona with her family in 1972. In 1976, she became one of the first women on a Forest Service fire crew in the Santa Rita Mountains south of Tucson. She’ll be speaking to us about finding a small publisher.

Q: What inspired you to write your book, Summers of Fire: A Memoir?
A: Multiple losses … within 5 years time, I ended my 23 year marriage, lost my job, and lost my mom. Because my years as a firefighter were some of the best times of my life, I returned to them—not necessarily to write a book, but to write down some of the events. However, after doing so, friends encouraged me to write more. And I did. Four hundred pages!

Author Nancy Villalobos

Nancy’s real-life story will be featured in the Next Chicken Soup for The Empowered Woman’s Soul
