Carol Troestler

Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin, United States

Email: ctroestl@merr.com

My educational background includes a Bachelors Degree in psychology and biology with a minor in English from Ripon College, as well as a master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Wisconsin. I have worked as an English teacher, school social worker and owner of a mental health center where I was administrator, psychotherapist and trainer.

I was a freelance writer and content editor for a program manual for the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. I also co-wrote a program and manual for people with life threatening illness. This program, Renewing Life, has had over 4000 participants throughout the country. Schools throughout Wisconsin have presented my play, “The Magic Potion.” My writing history also includes other educational materials for schools, as well as “The Story of the Golden Footprints,” a short story included in several inspirational websites.

In addition, I raised six children and am presently retired, living in rural Wisconsin with my husband. My husband is a retired airline pilot and thus we have traveled extensively throughout the world. My interest in history has inspired my present writing endeavors.
