Laura Bush, PhD

Dr. Laura Bush is committed to transforming the world through mission-driven books. In 2012, she founded Peacock Proud Press, an independent book publishing company that empowers authors to change the world with their words. With a PhD in English from Arizona State University and 30+ years of teaching people how to write, Laura has guided hundreds of sought-after speakers, successful entrepreneurs, corporate and community leaders, and memoirists to write and publish high-quality, nonfiction books.

Laura’s own book, Faithful Transgressions in the American West: Six Twentieth-Century Mormon Women’s Autobiographical Acts (Utah State University Press, 2004) is a ground-breaking work of literary criticism that grew out of her doctoral studies in memoir writing. She has published non-scholarly and scholarly articles in peer-reviewed journals.
