Autorenporträt
Leeann Smith has lived in rural Alabama towns all her life. She is mother to amazing daughters and "Gigi" to a precious granddaughter. Though she enjoys her longtime occupation in the medical field, her true passion has always been writing. In addition to The Precious Not Forgotten, she is also the author of Cat's Eye Marble. The Precious Not Forgotten was inspired by Leeann's paternal grandmother and other family members who suffered from Alzheimer's. As a child, Leeann would sit for hours listening to her grandmother tell stories of her life experiences as well as that of her children and grandchildren. "The older I get, the more I appreciate those times spent listening to my grandmother as well as other elders. Some stories were happy, some sad, but all were enriched with wisdom. I wish I could go back and tell my young self to record as much of it as possible so even though the people are no longer with us, their legacy could continue."
