About the Author

An avid proponent of social justice and immigration rights, Marian T. Call was immediately intrigued by the prospect of writing In Solidarity, Rev. James Flynn. She was a Roman Catholic nun for 18 years at the Sisters of Mercy, Province of Cincinnati, Ohio, before working odd jobs and moving to California for a year. She then moved to Kentucky, where she worked as a teacher, then social worker in Child Protective Services for the state until her retirement in 2006.

Call currently lives in Pleasureville, Kentucky, a small town about 45 miles northeast of Louisville. To date, she's still active in social justice and community issues. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, gardening, quilting, and cooking.
