Mary C. Morrison

Mary C. Morrison was born in New Hampshire and raised in Virginia, Maryland and Florida. A graduate of Smith College, she described herself as 'a compulsive writer from the age of seven'. At age 70, she learned Greek so she could interpret the New Testament herself. She began to write Let Evening Come after an Episcopal priest asked her to give a talk on ageing. Mary Morrison died in 2003. She is survived by three children, eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.
