Conroy, Arden: - Arden Conroy grew up in Chicago and spent her childhood attending the local museums. The first historical era to capture her attention was the 1920s thanks to Chicago's notorious entanglement in Prohibition. Her interest in history branched out from there. Arden has lived all over the United States from the Hudson Valley, NY to Tulsa, OK and many places in between. Today, she lives between Chicago and Pennsylvania with her husband and two children.
