After several years of working in the public and private sector, doing everything from assembling Tonka Toy trucks (when they were made in America), working in a LP record distribution warehouse, serving in a variety of public governmental roles, managing a construction office, to becoming a social studies teacher at the age of forty-two, Rhonda is recently retired.Her passion for history, especially local and regional history, has resulted in the Minnesota’s Lost Towns series which chronicles Minnesota used-to-be towns and communities.As she and her family (including the dog) travel the state, north, east, south and west, she is now working on the next books in the series. She is also presently working on a book detailing other regional points of interest.You can learn more about Rhonda and her books at www.rhondafochs.weebly.com or at www.facebook.com/MinnesotasLostTowns.
