She graduated from Sparta high school in June 1948. She received a BS and MS from the University of Wisconsin and taught in Wisconsin schools for thirty-two years. In 1983 she started a daycare, Harvard House, in Janesville, Wisconsin, licensed for seventy-five children, six weeks old through elementary school. She retired from the daycare in 1993 to begin her writing career. She married an optometrist, William Zenk, and has five children. Jacqueline and her husband live in the Wisconsin Dells area. Jacqueline spends her time reading (usually three books at a time - one of the books always a spiritual book), writing, and a bit of gardening. I am a writer.

In times of unhappiness I need to write of my sorrow as if it had a life of its own, and by putting the sorrow into words I can cope with it as I am able. She and her dog, Rosie, like to take walks together in the woods around her home. See less
