Jeffrey, a retired professor of literature and creative writing at Hofstra University, began as a junior high school teacher in New York City at a time when schools were segregated largely according to neighborhoods.

Before becoming a teacher, Ms. Jeffrey was a by-line reporter for a daily metropolitan newspaper. WALKING THE CLIFFS is her second published novel.view less
