Jenny Sokol

 

Columnist, Children's Book Author

     Jenny majored in English and earned a Bachelor's of Science from the US Naval Academy in 1994. She served in the US Navy for five years and is the spouse of a Marine. Since 2003, she has written a successful column for the Orange County Register. Jenny's musings on the adventures of motherhood and military life currently reach an estimated 500,000 readers. She also contributes to OperationHomefront.com, an online community for military wives and women in uniform.

    When Jenny's husband deployed to Iraq two times, she searched extensively for books to help her young children deal with the realities of war. Not satisfied with the results of that search, Jenny vowed to one day write a book specifically for military kids. I'm a Hero Too is that book.
