Bestselling Author Marie Benedict Knows History

I like to think of Marie Benedict as my midlife history professor; every novel she writes teaches me more about periods of time I thought I understood.

I interviewed Marie as part of Totally Booked: Live in Palm Beach. Prepare to be transported. ** Want more? Become a part of my community!
