Connie Hunter-Urban longs to be about Father's business. She grew up in Oxford, Ohio, and earned a BS and an MA from Miami University. She taught high school English for thirty-three years before retiring. Then God led her to study the symbolism of the Gates in Nehemiah 3, which became her first book, God's Plan for Our Success: Nehemiah's Way. Since then she has had four other books published, in addition to five children's books.
