Person
Ann Ball is a mother of two and teaches English and agriculture at Marian Christian High School in Houston, Texas. She has also worked as a private investigator, though writing is her hobby. She spent ten years researching the lives of the saints for her largest work so far, Modern Saints. She would like to note that she possesses a what could be called a considerable number of files containing information on them. Mrs. Ball holds a B.S. from the University of Houston in education, and is the author of a biography on Blessed Miguel Pro. She leaves her readers with the following words concerning her active life: "Being a mother and a teacher are my vocations; security is my job. I love all three and my writing."
