About the Author

Edie Jarolim has worn many hats — not counting the sombrero she

donned on a certain one-margarita-too-many night. . . . She has a Ph.D. in

American literature from New York University and was a senior editor at

Frommer’s travel guides in New York before being lured by the warm sun

and endless vistas — not to mention the inexpensive real estate — to

Tucson, Arizona, in 1992. She has since written about the Southwest and

Mexico for a variety of national publications, ranging from Art & Antiques

and Brides to National Geographic Traveler, The New York Times Book

Review, and the Wall Street Journal, and is a frequent contributor to

Tucson Guide Quarterly and Tucson Home . She is also the author of

Frommer’s San Antonio & Austin.

Author’s Acknowledgments

It has been a decade and a half since Marjorie Magnusson and Leia

James of the Arizona Office of Tourism warmly welcomed a flustered

travel writer who, new to the many mysteries of driving, showed up

more than an hour late for her first lunch in Scottsdale with them. My

ability to judge distances between cities is a bit better these days, but

the helpfulness and good spirits of everyone I’ve worked with at the

Arizona Office of Tourism have remained unchanged. In addition to

Marjorie — who continues to be an invaluable resource — I’d particu-

larly like to thank Jacki Mieler and Heather Koncilja for their assistance.

If I could individually thank all the people who assisted me in getting to

know Arizona, this book would be twice the size, so I’ll restrict myself

to those in the organizations that most directly helped to facilitate my

research for the 4th edition of this guide. They are (in alphabetical

order by destination): Luanne Matson (TMC Group, Inc. for Cochise

County); Meg Roederer (Flagstaff Convention and Visitors Bureau);

Dwayne Cassidy (Page-Lake Powell Chamber of Commerce); Brett Brooks

(Phoenix Convention & Visitors Bureau); Sachiko Sado and Jennifer

Wesselhoff (Sedona–Oak Creek Chamber of Commerce); Laura McMurchie,

Tatum Ostaff, Michelle Streeter (Scottsdale Convention & Visitors Bureau);

Toni Graham (Tempe Convention & Visitors Bureau); Kimberly Schmitz

(Metropolitan Tucson Convention & Visitors Bureau) and Julie Brooks

(Wickenburg Chamber of Commerce).

Special thanks go to Nikki Buchanan , Phoenix Magazine’s food critic, for

her expert advice on Valley restaurants; and to Kate Davis, Kira Hesser,

Kathy McMahon, and Austin Pederson for their invaluable research

assistance.
