In this episode, JEM interviews her “wonder twin”, Dr. Jacqueline Mantz, who reads from her new book “Embracing Dawn” which she wrote as part of her work with the Prison Education Project. They both even wear faux fur vintage coats in the interview. It’s so much fun!  

JEM also reads an excerpt from her new memoir “Tales of an Inland Empire Girl” & talks with her sister Jackie about the overlap in their writing and their perspectives as twins. Jackie also talks about her work as a teacher and how empathy plays a role. Come watch!
