When a twist of fate landed Jennifer Vido at the “Reading with Ripa” roundtable discussion with Kelly Ripa and Meg Cabot, she knew that her career as a French teacher would never be the same. A graduate of Vanderbilt University, Jennifer is a member of Romance Writers of America and reviews books for the major publishing houses, such as Random House, Penguin, and Harper Collins. Currently, she is a columnist and reviewer for www.freshfiction.com, where her popular monthly column, Jen’s Jewels, also appears. As a national trainer for The Arthritis Foundation’s Aquatic and Land Exercise Programs, she is an advocate for those like herself who suffer from arthritis, the nation’s #1 cause of disability. In addition, she serves as Vice-chairperson of the Board of Trustees of the Harford County Public Library where she resides with her husband and two sons.
Jennifer and her family also vacation yearly at Kiawah Island, SC and enjoy spending time in the lowcountry.
