Jennifer Bennett (1977- ) was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, to a native Cajun mother and West Virginian visiting construction worker father.

Jennifer Bennett (1977- ) was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, to a native Cajun mother and West Virginian visiting construction worker father. The two ran off to get married after her mother proposed in a laundry mat. They later had five children over the span of a nearly forty-year marriage. Being the middle child, Jennifer found an escape in writing at the ripe old age of seven. Her first co-written novel was in middle school which began a string of short stories and novellas while her family traveled from Louisiana to Savannah, Georgia; then Knob Noster, Missouri; Violet, Louisiana; Wiggins, Mississippi; Jacksonville, North Carolina; Lumberton, Mississippi; and finally settling in Petal, Mississippi, where she found her true passions: rodeos and equine sports. With the assistance of her soon-to-be husband, Mark, she quickly learned about horses, riding and livestock. Spending more than a month in Arkansas and Oklahoma, she honed her skills and began working on her sister's ranch. When not writing, Jennifer is a professional speaker and facilitator and mom. She lives with Mark and their son, Christopher. They share their home with a cat, a dog, and two rabbits. They also shared their land with several large yard cats, three horses, a donkey and half a dozen deer. See less
