Dr. Marcia E. Jackson's mission in life is to help people. She believes that it is through our personal life experiences that we possess the valuable lessons that help us heal from within. Over the last twenty-one years, she has enjoyed a rich career serving children and families as an educator. She is now focused on cultivating her gift of writing in order to expand her ability to accomplish her life's mission. Prior to writing Until Now, she co-authored the anthology, Fearless Faith, and will continue writing to help others heal from their past. As she works each day to continue building a life of purpose and meaning, she envisions adding philanthropy to assist her with fulfilling her purpose of helping others. Dr. Jackson is originally from Shreveport, Louisiana and has spent the last twenty-five years living in the Washington, DC area with her son, Richard.
