ABOUT THE AUTHORS

Husband-and-wife team Judith Sherven, PhD and Jim Sniechowski, PhD have redefined the future of weddings with their new book, THE SMART COUPLE’S GUIDE TO THE WEDDING OF YOUR DREAMS: Planning Together for Less Stress and More Joy (New World Library). From now on brides AND grooms will understand the value of being co-partners every step along the way.

They are the bestselling authors of Be Loved for Who You Really Are (St. Martin's Press 2003), The New Intimacy (HCI 1997) and Opening to Love 365 Days a Year (HCI 2000).

A clinical psychologist, Judith worked in private practice for twenty-two years. Jim holds a doctorate in Human Behavior and co-founded the Men's Health Network in Washington, D.C.

Judith & Jim were both involved in the film industry earlier in their lives. Judith as an actress, Jim as actor, director, and teacher. Along with their extensive media expertise, they bring a lively, provocative, and entertaining approach to radio and television interviews.

As invited guests, they’ve brought their expertise to over 1000 television and talk-radio shows including Oprah, The O'Reilly Factor, The View, 48 Hours, Canada AM, MSNBC, and CNN. They have been interviewed for and published by hundreds of newspapers and magazines including the Los Angeles Times, USA Today, Chicago Tribune, O, Men’s Health, Family Circle, Redbook, Cosmopolitan, Glamour, Playboy, Woman's Day, and Parents' Magazine and they are columnists for Today's Black Woman.

More than their extensive professional background, Judith & Jim bring profound personal experience and knowledge to their work. They have been married for seventeen years. It's Judith's first and Jim's third, so they bring hope for almost everyone!
