AUTHOR THANKS

Karla ZimmermanMany thanks to Neil Anderson, Lisa DiChiera, Mark Fornek, Janet Ginsburg, Jonathan Hayes, Kari Lydersen, Melissa McCarville, Betsy Riley, Diana Slickman, Bob Stockfish and Sara Zimmerman. A big round of Hoosier Mama to ace coauthor Sara Benson. Deep gratitude to all of the Lonely Planet Chicago writers who

trod before me. Thanks most of all to Eric Markowitz, the world’s best partner-for-life, who fed me, drove me and kept the house from falling apart while I wrote this book.

Sara BensonThanks to Jennye Garibaldi for this sweet home Chicago gig. Working with the always-amazing Karla Zimmerman was awesome – go Cubs! Thanks also to my dad, James Benson, for Chicago sports history lessons, and to Jonathan Hayes and Sara Zimmerman for being my hosts, dining-out partners and drinking buddies.
