==Background==
Littauer grew up in her father's store in Haverhill, Massachusetts, with her sharing three rooms with her family. Her parents were Walter and Katie F. Chapman. She attended the University of Massachusetts on a scholarship,〔Ludington Daily News. ''Win-some Women Retreat Set''. Oct 6, 1963, p6〕 where she received a Bachelor's degree in English with a minor in psychiatry.〔Weldon, Ann. ''I Had To Humble Myself. Florence Littauer Gave Her Life To Jesus Christ After Life's Tragedies Forced Her Into total Defeat''. The Evening Independent. Nov 8, 1980, p8A〕
Littauer met her husband Fred Littauer met at a Jewish day camp for girls, with the two becoming engaged about a year later.〔Miller, Betty Jean. ''Ladies Prayer Luncheon: Florence Littauer... Some Things Are More Important Than Success''. The Evening Independent. Nov 4, 1980, Section B〕 The wedding was covered by ''Life Goes to a Wedding'' and the two have had four children together. Their third child, Fred Jr "Freddie", died from issues related to seizures he suffered during his infancy and their fourth child, Larry (deceased), suffered from a brain disorder and was institutionalized.〔〔Fenning, Esther Talbot. ''AUTHOR'S STORY OF GETTING ON WITH LIFE FOCUS OF TALK''. St. Louis Post-Dispatch. February 17, 1995, p4〕 During this time Littauer suffered depression, which continued until she met Roy Gustafson, a member of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Team.〔 From this meeting Littauer and her husband began a ministry, a public speaking business, and a series of religious themed books.〔Stewart, Rose Russell. ''What We Say can Destroy or Make a Success of a Life''. Toledo Blade. Nov 15, 1988, p21〕 The Littauers would have another child following Freddie's death. In October 2002, Fred died of a heart attack at their home while Littauer was away on a speaking engagement. ''Behind the Personality: The Story of My Life'' was in its final editing stages at that time and Littauer inserted a tribute to her late husband in the final chapter of the book.〔(In Memoriam: Fred Littauer )〕
