Alice Chambers
Publisher, editor and writer
I have always had a curious nature and an interest in people, Places and
events. I like meeting people of different backgrounds, traveling and going to
festivals, concerts and plays.
Reading has also been a favorite for me for most of my life. I tend to enjoy
mysteries and historically based novels. For many years, reading took me places
I had never been and perhaps would never go. As an adult, I have traveled to
many of the places I read about and still enjoy reading about. I also enjoy
writing and have short stories that I would like to publish one day.
IN 1988, I moved to the Ozarks and fell in love with the folklore, music and
traditions. After a time, I went to work at the White River Current in Calico
Rock, AR. Barbara DeAngeles was the owner and publisher and became a dear
friend. I left the Current to pursue another career and be a part of the
original Stone County Ironworks in Mountain View, AR. (it has since changed
ownership) After 10 years, I returned to the newspaper business at the Van Buren
County Democrat, in Clinton, AR. After working there for more than 5 years and
the Fairfield Bay News for a short time - I made the decision to follow my
dream.
It has been my hearts desire for some time to start a publication that would be
more than something you would read one time and throw away. I dreamed of a
publication that would be read and passed along to another to be read or kept to
be read again...a source of interesting information of the Ozark region of
Arkansas...about people, places and events of the past, present and future of
the Ozarks....to keep the stories and traditions alive.
With the encouragement of friends and my husband Larry, I made a commitment to
publish "Life In The Ozarks." My hope is that everyone will enjoy
reading it as much as I have enjoyed working on it and that the stories and
traditions will continue on.
