Carriers of Genius examines the lives of twelve famous men through the eyes of their mothers. In it, we see how Disney, Einstein, Franklin, Gershwin, Hughes, Rockwell, Rogers, Roosevelt, Whitman, Wright, Astaire, and Carver came to be the legendary figures they are today.

Told in interview format, author and psychic Jan Helen McGee gives these women a voice as they share in their words what it was like to be the mother of genius and to shape history in unimaginable ways.

A tribute to women everywhere, Carriers of Genius: Conversations with the Mothers of Twelve Famous Men reminds us that there's a true story behind every myth and that we don't get places alone.
