CHRISTENA STEPHENS is a native Texan who grew up amongst cotton fields, spending time exploring the nature of the Llano Estacado. After earning two Master of Science degrees, she started a project to preserve a historical Texas ranch, thus began her interest in history, research, and writing. She did not intend to be a historian but was mentored by the best Texas historians. Several of her writings have been published in anthologies, along with her photographs.

She is an ardent advocate of wildlife conservation and her heart belongs to her dogs. See less
