Nancy Grace abandoned plans to become a Shakespearean literature professor to enter the world of crime and justice after her fiancé was murdered. She attended law school and graduated Law Review. Grace then spent the next decade in inner-city Atlanta prosecuting violent crimes, compiling a perfect record of more than 100 felony prosecution victories at trial with no losses. Grace joined Court TV and, for the next ten years, covered major trials after co-hosting Cochran & Grace with Johnnie Cochran. One of television’s most respected legal analysts, Grace lives in both New York City and Atlanta with her husband and her twins, a boy and a girl.
