Her father, a lineman, made a living stringing electrical wire across the territory, which became a new state in 1959. Her mother was a homemaker.As an adult, Madelin worked in a variety of office settings. At forty-three years old, she returned to college, obtaining an elementary education degree. When she realized the life of a teacher required constant vigilance, soothing hurt feelings, and breaking up fights, she opted for a less stressful environment. She entered the world of oil business (finding the requirements of big business and the elementary classroom very similar).She has written humorous short stories over the years, but only recently published. Now retired, she devotes much of her time to this enjoyment.Madelin currently lives in Alaska with her husband, Mike Zook.view less
