Ashton Stewart
James A. Stewart was born in Baton Rouge, LA. After graduating from Louisiana State University with a BS in Industrial Technology, he served for twenty-five years on active duty with the U.S. Navy, a career that took him around the world and culminated in a tour as Commanding Officer of USS Mount Vernon (LSD-39). He also holds a BA in English from National University (summa cum laude) and an MFA in Creative Writing from the UC Riverside Palm Desert Low-Residency MFA program. He lives with his family in San Diego, CA. This is his first book.
“Stewart uses...primary sources to bring Mann—and the rapidly changing times in which she lived—alive in a fast-paced, thoughtful true-crime work.”
