Grace Shaw Weber's life started in 1911 in Salt Lake City, Utah, and has lead her through Alberta, Canada, to Seattle, Washington, to Kodiak Island, Alaska and San Francisco, California, to Quincy, Washington and back again to Seattle, where she currently resides. She saw the 20th century through the eyes of a child of the plains, a book-keeper, a shipyard worker during the second world war, a farmer, a mother, and a journalist and press photographer. History and memoir blend together as one woman recounts her life and the 20th century in All Those Hats.

Neely Bat Chestnut has compiled her zines put out between 2005-2007, which include the first six issues of Mend My Dress, as well as Dear Step dad and Grit and Glitter, in a comprehensive anthology of early work. Chestnut's Zines are well respected in the zine community and her zines cover issues ranging from incest, self-harm, the riot grrrl movement, feminism, friendship, fairytale, and healing as she reflects on her childhood and coming-of-age.
