ABOUT ME
Morgan Allison Ross was born in Riverside, California, and was raised in San Diego. Growing up, she was always fascinated with the unsung and controversial stories of historic events and persons. She is also a descendant of David Stokes, the original pioneer of Riverside, CA. She is very creative and knowledgeable on a variety of topics including U.S. History, Crime, Literature, and many more. Morgan has also long been interested in the events of the Salem Witch Trials ever since she read for Tituba’s character in a high school literature class. She studied International Relations and Journalism at Mills College and earned a certificate in Television Writing from UCLA Extension. She now works with students studying for their ACT/SAT exams. Morgan lives in Florida with her two adorable main coon cats Heather Grey and dutifully named, Salem.
Be on the lookout for my new series on YouTube and TikTok called "The Quirky Historian," shedding light on unsung historical persons and events that more people should know about. Looking forward to connecting!
