Flora and Her Family

Flora Mae Hackett was born in 1902 in Monon (White County) Indiana. Upon graduation from high school, Flora moved to Chicago and entered the Five-States Beauty Contest sponsored by the Chicago Tribune and won! Aside from the sole copy (in my possession) of the Rotogravure section of the Chicago Tribune (June 5,1921) there is no official record left of her after that day.
My novel intends to pay homage to the forgotten but intrepid beauty who is one of a long list of Hoosiers that distinguished themselves and honored their state. May her memory be an inspiration to all. It is my hope the 'virtual life' I created and applied to her will be enjoyed as I believe she herself would have enjoyed it.
