Lorrie Fields – Author Portraits
Lorrie Fields is an author, historian, and speaker based in Virginia Beach, VA. With over 20 years of public speaking experience, adeptly covering diverse topics from history to relationships.
Lorrie has honed her craft of distilling complex information into meaningful ideas. A graduate of Regent University with a Bachelor of Arts in History, she is credited with scripts registered at The Writer’s Guild of America. Additionally, Lorrie co-wrote a history book, The Seed of a Nation, with her second husband and spent the last years before his death creating a TV series based on her continued historical research. In her memoir, Twice Widowed, Lorrie opens up in a rare way about her deeply personal journey through grief, revealing universal insights to support anyone navigating the difficulties of life, love, and loss.
In the stirring memoir Twice Widowed, Lorrie Fields invites readers into the intimate chambers of her heart as she navigates the tumultuous waters of profound loss, not once, but twice.
Lorrie’s life, rich with passion and purpose, is abruptly interrupted by the untimely deaths of two husbands—one in a tragic car accident in her youth, the other to a relentless cancer in her 50s. These blows, compounded by the additional losses of her sister and father, test her resilience, faith, and very sanity.
Lorrie, an author, historian, and public speaker, abandons shallow clichés and comforting platitudes. Instead, she embarks on a raw and reflective quest, digging deep into her own soul and questioning long-held beliefs. Her narrative eschews heavy exposition in favor of a genuine, primitive reorientation—allowing people to witness her transformation from desolation to a surprising revelation: profound gratitude for the very suffering that threatened to break her.
Beyond a tale of love, loss, and survival, Twice Widowed offers a compelling glimpse into the human spirit’s ability to heal, redefine identity, and find strength in vulnerability. Discover how Lorrie Fields, through the darkest nights of her soul, found a renewed passion and a deepened appreciation for life’s authentic moments.
