==Biography==
Dahl was born in Osen in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. She came to America during 1883 at the age of two along with her parents and six older siblings. Her family initially lived in a homestead in Day County, South Dakota. In 1900, Dahl began at the State Normal School in Madison, Wisconsin, but the signs of tuberculosis prevented a future as a teacher. She briefly attended St. Olaf College but starting during 1903 would spend her adult life in Kootenai County, near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. She worked as an accountant for a grain firm, in various trading companies and insurance companies.〔''The Multilingual anthology of American literature : a reader of original texts with English translations'' (Marc Shell; Werner Sollors. New York University Press, 2000)〕
Poor health thwarted her hopes of becoming a missionary, but she found consolation in taking part in temperance movement work. Religious by nature, Dahl was active within Lutheran Church organizations, including Daughters of the Reformation and the Rocky Mountain Women's Missionary Federation.〔(''Souvenir: Norse-American Women 1825-1925'' (edited by Alma A. Guttersen and Regina Helleboe Christensen. St. Paul, MN: Lutheran Free Church Publishing Company, 1926 pp. 330-332) )〕
