Short Biography

An educator for 25 years, an author for 10 years, and a two-time cancer survivor, Marsha Ingrao believes in miracles and in forgiveness through Jesus Christ. However, she doesn’t portray herself as a stereotypical, narrow-minded, judgmental Christian. She supports and practices lifelong learning.

“I’ve lived long enough to have learned more than I know, but I’m still learning,” she says with a laugh.

Marsha has lived in 26 homes during her life. From Indiana to Oregon. From the coniferous forests of Oregon, she and her first husband, Mark, moved to the colorful state of Colorado. Work as the pastor of a church took them to Visalia, CA., near the Giant Sequoias.

After her first husband passed, she and her second husband, Vince, lived near Woodlake, CA, then moved to Prescott, AZ, for a few years. Now, they live in Visalia, California, with Goldie the Dog, and Moji the Cat.
