About the Author

Elana V. Fox holds a Bachelor Degree in English and a Masters in Social Work. Born and raised in St. Louis, she holds memories of trips to Forest Park, the location of the World’s Fair in 1904, and tales of the fair from local media sources. In 1995, she completed the artwork and successfully printed The Official Coloring Book of the World’s Fair of 1904, an introduction to the fair for children. In completing research for this venture, Elana discovered that resources were limited in their scope of the fair and decided to compile a definitive look inside the World’s Fair of 1904. Look forward to her upcoming fiction novel, Mysterious Fallings.
