Autor

The daughter of a steel mill worker, Nancy Sule Hammond grew up in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and fell for her future spouse at a high school dance. She received a biology degree from Kutztown University, then ran quality control tests on disposable medical syringes. But she yearned for adventure, and found it when her husband spent two summers as a fire lookout in Idaho's St. Joe National Forest. They returned to the Middle Sister tower as volunteers in 2010. After decades away they moved back to Idaho, and recently celebrated their fifty-second anniversary.
