Making Waves in Zion by Cassandra King

Cassandra King

1944-present

Cassandra King, hailing from the rural community of Pinckard, Alabama, developed a passion for writing from an early age and pursued her dreams despite the challenges. After completing her undergraduate studies in English at Alabama College (now University of Montevallo), she balanced her writing aspirations with her role as a wife and mother. In the late 1980s, she returned to the University of Montevallo to earn an MFA, and her thesis project served as the foundation for her debut novel, Making Waves in Zion. King's dedication to writing flourished after her marriage to South Carolina writer Pat Conroy in 1998, and she transitioned into a full-time writer. With several published works, including The Sunday Wife, King currently resides with her husband on Fripp Island, South Carolina, where they both pursue their literary endeavors.
