About

Me & My Shadow is where Chicago history gets personal.

Frances O’Cherony Archer blogs about the intersection of Chicago history with personal memories and experiences, her own and those of others. She was born and raised in Chicago and still lives in the area.

When Frances started blogging about her childhood neighborhood on Chicago’s Far North Side, former neighbors, classmates and total strangers posted comments, filling in the blanks of her memories. The result is Me & My Shadow, a blog that serves up the memories she recalls as well as the ones she’s found on the Internet. Read this interview with Frances to find out more about her take on blogging.

When not blogging, Frances is a social media consultant with her own company, Content First. She works with small business owners and nonprofit organizations to establish and maximize their social media presence.
