About the Book

A phone and a typewriter were all Estelle Craig needed to start what turned out to be a lifetime of fun and the road to meeting famous people, from a prime minister of England, to a mountain climber, Sir Edmund Hillary, changing diapers and booking celebrities at the same time she created and directed the World Adventure Tours for 41 years. Estelle satisfied her hunger for travel by escorting people on trips around the world. She wrote travel articles, interviewed people for the CBC, published a national magazine, "small types" for children, and at the same time raised 3 children and ran a household for the family. Evening gowns were Estelle's working clothes when she appeared on the stage to introduce the artist of the evening. Many shows were sold out. Armchair travelers subscribed to the series year after year. After 41 years Craig decided it was time to turn to other fields and when she received an offer to sell the WAT, she did. At Ryerson University she discovered Act II Studio and auditioned and appeared in two plays. She has written several plays which were produced by Act II Studio at the Robert Gill Theatre in Toronto. She has also written a newspaper column, radio scripts and a mystery novel. Her special delights are music, the theatre and her grandchildren and four great grandchildren, and the untold mysteries and wonders that tomorrow might bring.
About the Author: Born in Massachusetts, raised in Manhattan, and now a longtime resident of Toronto, Estelle Craig talked her way into becoming a columnist for the largest paper in West Virginia, the Herald Dispatch. In the late 30's and 40's conventional society decreed that married women should not work. Craig was the only married woman on the paper. In Toronto, with two infants, away from family and friends in an unknown city, a new country, she defied convention by founding her own business without leaving home, balancing changing diapers and booking celebrities for her travel adventure shows, which ran for 41 years.
