The Homeschooling Revolution



October 23, 2007

Maureen Get Your Gun

One for the Where are they now? mental file

Certain home education veterans will remember Maureen McCaffrey's editorial contributions to the homeschooling revolution. Maureen was the former editor and publisher of Homeschooling Today magazine. She was also a Conservative Book Club vice-president.

I wrote for HT when Maureen was the boss, and she was a joy to work with - this was back in the 20th century before e-mail exchanges between editors and writers were the norm, so we conversed on the phone a few times.

During our last chick chat, I learned that Maureen, who is from the East Coast, had married a transplanted Westerner, moved to Wyoming, and enthusiastically embraced the outdoor life. Her husband, in fact, is Chilton Williamson Jr. who is also a well-known name in conservative publishing circles. Chilton has contributed to Chronicles and National Review, authored several books, and was an editor for St. Martin's Press. His forte is penning descriptive essays about life in the rugged Rocky Mountain West.

Here's an advice article, published in 2003, that Maureen wrote about the homeschool market.

Who knows? Maybe one of these days she'll co-author an article with her hubby for The Sportsman Channel.
