Lorraine is Norma's Grand-daughter. Born in Kalgoorlie, Lorraine moved to Perth with her family at ten years of age. After completing a Bachelor of Arts Degree in English and History at UWA, she worked in the Finance Industry in Perth. In 1997 she moved to Australind to raise her family. From 2017-2018 she created and self-published several adult colouring books. In 2018 she also began archiving Norma King's research material. This resulted in the publication of this book. The cover design, interior, illustrations were done by Lorraine, under the name of LozsArt. Norma was born in Kalgoorlie in 1922. A life member of the Eastern Goldfields Historical Society, she spent her life living and recording history in the region. Her work on social history was particularly important, documenting where people in the Goldfields came from, where they stayed and what they achieved. In 2013, she received the OAM (Order of Australia) for her service to the Community as a Historian. In 2014 she was included in Kalgoorlie's walk of fame in Hannan Street.
