Leslie Goldberg asked Marie Benedict:

Hello Marie--I have read all your books and love them. I am wondering if you've ever considered writing about Emily Roebling, the wife of Brooklyn Bridge engineer John Roebling? It seems that Emily Roebling guided the construction of the BB after John Roebling died. It seems that she would make an interesting story, yes? I look forward to your reply. Thanks! Leslie

Marie Benedict Thank you for searching for these women? There is actually a terrific book about her, The Engineer's Wife!

What is the name of your book about Brigid of Kildare? The little I know of her excites me to know more. I am thankful that you write about extraordinary women. I believe however it is thought that their lives matter only to women. I have been a pastor and I've become excited to learn of this person of faith and the spiritual power she had and how people were drawn to her. Pastor Bruce
