Fran Hawk and her husband live in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina, near several Hunley landmarks. For the past 10 years she has enjoyed her job as a children's librarian in her local school district. Currently she works in a small alternative high school for at-risk students. She writes a weekly children's book review column for the Charleston Post and Courier and writes freelance articles for magazines. Her four children are grown, but neighborhood children and former students are frequent visitors at her "lived-in" house on the creek. She doesn't have any pets, but her backyard is full of egrets and toads. Alligators drop by occasionally.

A graduate of the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, Nance has created numerous book and magazine covers and is widely respected by both scholars and historical interpreters. Dan has works in the permanent collection of the South Carolina State Museum and has worked as a Second Unit Director and Director of Photography on several Civil War documentaries.
