Author Gerard de Marigny
Gerard de Marigny (pronounced “de-Mar-E-nee”) has been a
successful musician and entrepreneur and now intends to bring his
passion for his faith and writing together, in his novels. During the
1980’s and 1990’s, Gerard was the lead guitarist for a rock band that
sold many thousands of records all over the world. His band won the
“Best New Video” award on MTV in1983, but a life-threatening illness
(cancer, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma) and an epiphany of faith inspired him to
leave that lifestyle and devote himself to “living his faith.”
Gerard continued writing music for TV and a movie, while branching out and starting his own businesses in the transportation and financial industries. Yet, his lifelong ambition was to bring to life righteous characters that would inspire others.
In 2007, Gerard was awarded the prestigious Fischer Family Scholarship for the Arts from Penn State University, for a 5,000-word autobiographical work he was commissioned to write. He has also recently been featured by Penn State in their “Be Exceptional” series, with full-page advertisements in U.S. News & World Report (September 2010) and the Penn Stater
In 2011, he completed his debut novel, THE WATCHMAN OF EPHRAIM, a political thriller which is book one of his WATCHMAN OF EPHRAIM series. (July-August 2010) magazines.
