He was working 60-70 hours a week in a small Southaven, Mississippi, law firm long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, squeezing in time before and during trial recesses to focus on his hobby—writing his first novel. John Grisham was born on February 8, 1955, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to a construction worker and a housewife.
As a kid, he wanted to be a professional baseball player. He switched gears and majored in accounting at Mississippi State University after realizing he lacked the necessary skills for a professional job. He practiced law in Southaven for over a decade after graduating from law school at Ole Miss in 1981, focusing on criminal defense and personal injury lawsuits.
