What a delight to have Jennifer Battisti as our guest. JoAnn and Jennifer worked together at the Spa at Red Rock Resort and Casino. It was about that time that Jennifer started to get more involved in writing. Going back to school, going to workshops and poetry readings. It was when she saw “The King at the Burger King” on her way to a Portland Writer’s Workshop that it hit her that she could decide to become a writer just like this Off Duty Elvis decided to become The King.

Since making that decision, she’s published 2 books (“Echo Bay” and “Off Boulder Highway”), was voted Best Local Writer by Desert Companion readers in 2019, got involved with the Alzheimer’s Poetry Project (doing readings at facilities and also teaching children about poetry and Alzheimer’s), and continues to broaden her horizons in life and in writing.
