Jonathan Marcus

Jonathan Marcus grew up in a middle class Jewish family and was draft-age during the Vietnam War. Like many young people during the late Sixties, he craved New Age consciousness and self-discovery. His intellectual curiosity led him on a decades-long spiritual journey with the charismatic leader, Jan Cox, and The Work.

Marcus earned a degree from Emory University. However, he was self-taught in all his careers and avocations: short order cook, welder, ranch hand, awning entrepreneur, performer, photographer and carpenter. For more than thirty years, he designed and built homes in the urban pioneer neighborhoods of downtown Atlanta.

He is happy to live in Richmond, Virginia, as a writer, activist and community organizer. He is currently working on the sequel to Everything is Happening at Once, due to release this winter.
