I am excited to announce the publication in March, 2012 of Disaster & Triumph: Sacramento Women, Gold Rush Through the Civil War, a California history. Also, an article “An Unlikely Heroine” in the March/April issue of The History Channel Magazine. I previously published 52+ articles in Working World, a Los Angeles regional magazine, where I was a contributing editor listed on the masthead, + 4 articles in Sacramento’s California Job Journal, writing as Cheryl Carmichael. VP Programs, CWC – Sacramento, since 2007. Born, raised, & back home in Sacramento since 2/2000 after living several years in Los Angeles. I graduated from CSU Northridge, B.S. in Business, and worked in the LA entertainment industry for independent TV producers. See my website devoted to California history at CherylAnneStapp.com “California’s Olden Golden Days.” I’m currently promoting my first book and working on another Sacramento history under contract to the History Press, publication date early 2013.
