Donna Love's Biography

Member Info

Oct 2009

Since turning 80, I have written and published two books of stories based on my rich and varied life. Raising four sons. Running a tutoring center for dyslexic students. Walking across America in the Great Peace March. Remodeling houses in Mexico.
Every day I continue to write. And to speak to audiences about the pleasures in telling our stories. To people who are intimidated by writing their lives, I say, “Write your lives one tale at a time. Remember, you don’t have to start at the beginning.”

Upcoming Works

Walking for our Lives gives an autobiographical perspective of the Great Peace March for Global Nuclear Disarmament and two other peace marches in the US and Soviet Union. The memoir follows the journey of Donna Rankin Love from her life of comfortable conformity to becoming comfortable with herself. Through her tales, we discover how Donna's experiences walking in the Great Peace March for Global Nuclear Disarmament transformed her opinions of what is important and what is worth fighting for from the easy choices to the meaningful ones. Walking for our Lives is currently available for pre-sale, and will be released in September 2011.
