Joanne Dwyer Ivey, who has spent the last 50+ years living on a pecan farm in Texas, was born in 1939 in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, and was raised in a home filled with literature and a deep appreciation for language.  After earning her Bachelor of Arts in English, along with a teaching certificate, Joanne embarked on a teaching journey, starting at a parochial school in Texas.   Joanne and Jim raised seven children and were partners in their farming business for over five decades.  In her own words, Joanne reflects on the importance of listening to the stories of the elderly, a sentiment that resonates deeply with the themes of her book. "Kernal's Boys" stands as a testament to the richness of history and the power of storytelling, inviting readers to cherish and learn from the past.
