When she was a little girl, she made up stories for the entertainment of her younger brother and sister, a facility for story-making that led her eventually into the world of writing. Prior to becoming a published author, she attended the University of Minnesota for both her Bachelors and Masters degrees, then owned, and operated a stenographer’s company in California, before finally moving to Illinois where she lived the rest of her life. She and her husband would often travel by freighter or mail-boat to out-of-the-way places. In this way, Mrs. Seymour found interesting people and unusual situations, which furnished material for her books. Two of Alta Halverson Seymour’s books—On the Edge of the Fjord and The Tangled Skein—were Junior Literary Guild selections.view less
