Summary: Searching for Lincoln's Ghost is Barbara J. Dzikowski's debut novel. She earned an undergraduate degree in philosophy and a graduate degree in counseling from Indiana University. These areas of study fueled her desire to create "philosophical" fiction that closely examines the human heart and its complex search for love and meaning. After living on both coasts for several years, she returned to Indiana where she currently serves as the program director for a social service agency. Fascinated by the passion, idealism, and lost hope of the 1960s, she has just completed her second novel, "Losing Is Still Ours," a story about two families struggling with the changes and uncertainties of that decade, with a particular focus on the cataclysmic year of 1968. She is in the process of writing her third novel, "Show Me the Way to Go Home," a sequel, which features a character going through Alzheimer's disease and how his disease impacts the entire family.
