Miriam Jacobs

Miriam Jacobs is the founder of The 5th Village Project, a unique concept for helping people in extreme poverty. Currently, a documentary is being produced based on a book she ghostwrote. She has lived on 4 continents and has worked as a forensic document examiner (yes, testified in court and hated every second of it), owned a store, sold ShamWow at fairs (yes, they are that amazing), danced off-off-Broadway, worked as a waitress, performed weddings and a funeral, taught communications courses in every state of the Union, raised 3 amazing kids, and recently got her Masters in Business and Organizational Anthropology. She likes good food and buttons and reads cookbooks and murder mysteries for fun.
