About the Authors

Beginning or starting over are not new things for Marie-Jeanne. From a Depot of Surplus under American authorities, followed by the French where she held an important job over the civilian help, she went to the Foire Internationale de Marseille as Interpreter and was in contact with Embassies all over the world, inviting them to participate. Once in America she had to start all over again, through determination and perseverance, she worked her way up the ladder and became M.J. Darr, Operation Manager of an Independent Oil Company and remained so for many years. The Blue Ring is her first book it refers to her heritage, to growing up in France and Italy, to World War II, the Underground, and the gratitude of her people toward America.

Her daughter, Cherie, who helped Marie-Jeanne write her story, was formerly an actress and dancer who worked with companies from New York to Los Angeles, and decided to move to San Diego becoming an Esthetician and developing her own line of cosmetics and skin care products. Just like her mother, Cherie is not afraid of starting over.

Their motto has always been "Vouloir c'est Pouvoir" (where there is a will there is a way).
