Person
Janet Fisher grew up on the farm her great-great grandmother Martha bought almost 150 years ago. After earning a master's in journalism with honors from the University of Oregon, she taught college writing and wrote freelance for newspapers. She lived and worked in San Francisco, Kalispell, Montana, and other places, including several cities in Oregon, showing a trace of the Maupin wanderlust. Two of her historical novels were Pacific Northwest Writers Association contest finalists. She recently returned to Martha's farm along the UmpquaRiver in southern Oregon and became the second woman to own and operate this family treasure.
