From Three Feet Off the Ground is a story rich with insights and luminous moments of wonder." - Lisa Fugard, Author of Skinner's Drift Christie Havey Smith is a Los Angeles-based author who specializes in narrative nonfiction literature. She teaches a variety of writing workshops throughout the LA area, empowering both adults and children to find their true voices and write themselves further into their own lives. Since Christie was a child, she has been fascinated with books and films that inspire change and celebrate life. Christie studied television and film writing at Ohio University, and her first manuscripts were screenplays. But her interest in character struggle did not stay tied to the screen. Christie brought her passion for the human condition back to academia where she studied spirituality and earned a Master of Arts degree in Theology from Loyola Marymount University. Christie is a writer, a teacher and a storyteller with a passion for the health and happiness of the human spirit. But above all, she is a mom. It is within this role that she has truly found herself.
