In this episode of Mississippi Stories, Mississippi Today Editor At Large Marshall Ramsey sits down with Dr. Jeannine Herron, neuropsychologist, reading expert and widow of Civil Rights photojournalist Matt Herron. Thanks to a connection between the Mississippi Museum of Art and the Barksdale Reading Institute, pre-school children in Jackson will be experiencing an innovative approach to reading and writing this semester because of an acquisition of civil rights photographs by MMA. MMA recently acquired 80 vintage photographs of the Civil Rights Movement taken by renowned photojournalist Matt Herron, mostly of events in Mississippi that occurred in 1963 -65. He died in 2020 and left a legacy of historic photos behind. This acquisition will give MMA the distinction of having the largest museum collection of vintage Herron photographs in the country. The connection to the Barksdale Institute is Dr. Jeannine Herron, Herron's wife, who is a neuropsychologist who came to Jackson in 1963 to honor Medgar Evers' life by joining hundreds of grieving citizens who walked down Lynch Street after his murder. She also started the first Head Start program in the country in Mississippi. Herron and Ramsey discuss the photographs, her time in Mississippi, the importance of reading, the program in Jackson and how a child learns to read.

A conversation between Dave Owens, Associate Director of Sojourn Network, and Matt Herron, Lead Pastor of Sojourn Traverse in Traverse City, Michigan.
I interview Matt Herron of The Debt Doctors at Quatrini Rafferty, a bankruptcy attorney in Pittsburgh. Some of the highlights in this interview include: * Exactly how to retain more clients using the "minimum retainer" strategy he learned from a high-volume bankruptcy firm * How to "turn around" clients who want a refund and get them to actually file and clear their debts * An ingenious way to "test drive" Chapter 13 clients BEFORE they make you do 15 hours of work and then never make a payment on their plan * The one word that he requires prospects to type into Google that helps him avoid having to "sell" prospects * The precise search keywords he avoids when advertising on Google AdWords * The single business practice he tweaked that lets him make money off of those complex bankruptcy cases that everybody else turns down * How merging with a full-service law firm that didn’t do bankruptcies actually increased his bankruptcy referrals * And a whole lot more!
