Autorenporträt
Jean Marie Wiesen, a noted investigative author and mystery crime writer, is author of Case of the Missing Look Alikes and Case of the Mouse Trap Legend. She attended Art Center College of Design in Southern California, where she majored in Still Photography and minored in Creative Writing. The author continued polishing her writing craft under the tutelage of British author Robert Pollock. Rita Daniels, the great-great-great grandniece of Harriet Tubman, is the President and Founder of the Harriet Tubman Learning Center (HTLC) based in Powder Springs, Georgia. She earned her Master’s Degree in Education and Bachelor’s Degree in Human Resources (Cum Laude) at Trident University International. Rita’s mission is to promote the education of underserved children, so no child suffers the humiliation of illiteracy, as Harriet did. Queen Mother Dr. Delois Blakely champions the aspirations of women, youth, education, economic-social development, and community relations. She graduated from the Franciscan Handmaids of Mary College and has received numerous honors as a Community Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT); an Education Policy Fellow with the International Education Leadership (IEL); a Fulbright Scholar in Tanzania and Nigeria; Master of Education Degrees from Harvard University, Teachers College, and Columbia University; and a Doctorate of Education Degree from Teachers College. She was appointed “The Community Mayor of Harlem” and sworn in by former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. Her duties as the Community Mayor of Harlem include supporting the needs of youth, family, and the community-at-large.  In 2009, Blakely was appointed Goodwill Ambassador to Africa.
