Denise
R. Larson specilizes in history and genealogy –
one family’s story, a town’s history, or the patchwork
tale of our vibrant American culture.
During the past dozen years, Denise has served as manager
of a county history and genealogy research center and as an
editor for a daily newspaper. Her work towards a degree in
cultural studies and writing led her to author Companions
of Champlain, Founding Families of Quebec, 1608-1635, a primer
on French-Canadian – “francadian” –
heritage and a how-to on French-Canadian-American genealogical
research. She can help writers streamline the process of telling
the story that lies behind and beyond pedigree charts and
official documents and help bring out the ways that history
in general relates to a specific family or locality.
Just as a family’s history contains stories that should
be taken with a grain of salt, Denise also has a special interest
in folklore, legends and light novels and looks forward to
helping writers express their imagination in tightly woven,
well-paced prose for both children and adults.
