Betsy Mitchell, Author

Being an author makes me even more aware of the importance of the author/editor relationship. My book, Journey to the Bottomless Pit: The Story of Stephen Bishop and Mammoth Cave, the fictionalized biography of a young African American who became known worldwide for his exploration of Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, in the early 1800s. The book was nominated for several state library awards and was named a New York Public Library Best Book for Kids.
