Virginia and moved right through the school system, ending
up as a college professor teaching doctoral students at Ohio
State University.
MaryJo wrote a state-wide
curriculum for Oregon schools and edited elementary and high school
textbooks for Holt, Rinehart and Winston. Her 90-page Brain Gym
workbook is provided to students in her Brain Gym 101 class. She's
also written The Dream Job, a workbook for finding the job
you love; A Handbook for Oral History; and a brain-based
learning e-book for entrepreneurs called Think Like
Einstein. Her column, "Stories from the Top," appeared in
The Women's Business Chronicle.
