Author Joyce M. Shaw lives and works in Ocean Springs; in fact, her family's roots in the area begin with her grandfather, Hobart Doane Shaw, who settled on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in the early 1900s and designed the seawall that protects Harrison County. Joyce is the head of the Gunter Library at the Gulf Coast Research Laboratory (GCRL). Author Betty Hancock Shaw is a native and lifelong resident of Gulfport, Mississippi. She became intensely interested in historical preservation after Hurricane Katrina's devastation. She is a founding member and president of the Historical Society of Gulfport, and her preservation efforts have been recognized by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History.
